Individuals in crisis are often taken to jails, an environment ill-suited to addressing their mental health needs. This approach not only fails the individual but also places an unnecessary burden on the criminal justice system.

When a behavioral health crisis strikes, the emergency room is often the first place people turn for help. While emergency departments (EDs) are essential for treating physical trauma and acute medical conditions, they are not equipped to address the complex needs of individuals experiencing a mental health crisis.

When communities face behavioral health crises, the default solutions often involve incarceration or emergency room visits.

For individuals facing a behavioral health crisis, the traditional response often defaults to inpatient hospitalization. While longer-term inpatient care is sometimes necessary, it should not be the first or only solution. Most crises can be resolved quickly and effectively without the need for prolonged hospital stays, making the case for a more flexible, patient-centered approach.
