Mobile Crisis Response Teams (MCRT)

If you need help with a behavioral health crisis or know someone who does, call the Access & Crisis Line
(888) 724-7240

Mobile Crisis Response Teams (MCRT) provide in-person support to anyone, anywhere, experiencing a mental health, drug, or alcohol-related crisis.

MCRT dispatches behavioral health experts to emergency calls instead of law enforcement, when appropriate, with teams made up of clinicians, case managers, and peer support specialists.
