Crisis Resource Needs Assessment and Calculator

Tuesday, January 23, 2024 • 10:00a.m.–11:30a.m. PT



Overview:

A comprehensive continuum of crisis services is the first line of defense in ensuring those experiencing a behavioral health crisis receive care when and where it is needed. But implementing these services requires careful evaluation and planning. This session will provide an overview of the key components of crisis care with an emphasis on conducting a community needs assessment, making accurate capacity and funding projections, and discussion the considerations needed for success.
