How Crisis Care Works
How compassionate crisis care moves someone from crisis to recovery.
Crisis Occurs
A person experiences overwhelming distress and needs immediate support.
Help Is Reached
A person connects with support through 988, community partners, or emergency services.
Crisis Response
Mobile crisis teams, first responders, or community partners help determine the right level of care.
Crisis Stabilization
Individuals receive short-term stabilization in a recovery-focused environment, often like those operated by Recovery Innovations.
Recovery & Connection
Guests leave with support plans and connections to community services and ongoing care.
RI programs operate within community crisis systems that include 988 call centers, mobile crisis teams, and stabilization services.
