🌟 Staff attends the 2nd Annual Co-Responder Teams Professional Development Conference hosted by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD)! 🌟This year's theme, "Many Roles, One Goal: Collaborating for Care, Committed to Change," perfectly describes our program.
Our incredible co-responder Staff provides essential support in mental health crises by partnering with law enforcement officers to respond to 911 calls. 🙌
Since 1992, our program has been a beacon of hope in the community, ensuring that individuals in crisis receive the care they need at our DeKalb Regional Crisis Center. From de-escalation to follow-ups and referrals to our four outpatient clinics across DeKalb County, we're committed to making a difference every day. 💙
We're proud of our partnerships with the DeKalb County Police Department and the Decatur, Doraville, and Dunwoody Police Departments. Together, we're committed to change, ON CALL AT A TIME!
