Bill > HB06617

This bill proposes to expand the CRISIS Initiative (Connection to Recovery through Intervention, Support and Initiating Services) pilot program by requiring the Division of State Police within the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, in collaboration with the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services, to provide expanded juvenile services. Specifically, the bill mandates the implementation of mobile crisis intervention services designed to assist with emergency committal and transportation of juveniles to urgent care facilities or hospitals. The CRISIS Initiative appears to be a program aimed at providing critical mental health support and intervention services for young people in crisis situations, with this expansion focused on improving the ability to quickly and safely respond to mental health emergencies involving youth.
