There are approximately 2,000 Mobile Crisis Teams (MCTs) nationally that support mental health crises in the field (compared with about 20,000 EMS agencies that support physical health crises). However, unlike EMS, very few MCTs currently regularly serve 911 mental health calls, and an even smaller number take these calls without police presence.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Challenges include<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Mobile Crisis teams need shared quality standards that allow them to say yes to a holistic set of call types, a focus on stabilizing in place rather than transporting for involuntary evaluation, consistent funding, low-turnover staffing, short-term follow-up capability, warm handoffs to outbound referral partners, and stronger connectivity to inbound referral partners, including 911 and 988 call centers.<\/span><\/p><p><b>The Opportunity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: MCTs could become a fourth branch of 911 services alongside police, fire, and EMS, providing a professional, caring response to 911 calls about mental health and substance use crises that are not immediately dangerous. This could decrease untreated mental illness, overdoses, suicides, and assaults while also avoiding unnecessary law enforcement encounters, arrests, emergency department visits, and hospitalizations.<\/span><\/p><p><br \/><br \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-41dc708f elementor-widget
