🚨 Take a closer look inside CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) Training! 🚨
This training brought together 30+ different speakers and multiple community agencies, all coming together to teach, share experiences, and learn from one another.

Throughout the training, participants covered topics including:

🧠 Basics of mental health diagnoses & symptoms
🚔 Jail services & the importance of diversion
💊 Substance use
🧩 Intellectual disability & Autism Spectrum Disorder
💙 Trauma-informed care
🏠 Working with individuals experiencing homelessness
👨‍👩‍👧 Working with juveniles
⚖️ Mental health laws
🎖️ Assisting veterans
💔 Grief
🛡️ Domestic violence & child abuse
🌎 Cultural competence
🧠 PTSD, dementia, Alzheimer’s & neurocognitive disorders
💪 First responder resilience & wellness
🧘 Coping skills

🎭 Live scenarios and hands-on learning

CIT is built on the idea that better understanding leads to better responses. When law enforcement, fire/EMS, behavioral health, social services, and community partners learn together, we strengthen our entire community's response to crisis.

And this training wouldn’t be possible without the incredible organizations and businesses that helped make it happen!
