Mobile Crisis

Overview:
Mobile Crisis Teams provide rapid assessment and short-term, in-home mental health services to individuals who are experiencing, or are at risk of experiencing, a psychiatric or psychosocial crisis and are unable or unwilling to secure mental health services. Efforts are made to link patients to services that will address both immediate and long-range treatment needs.

Target Population:
Patients must be 12 years of age or older, require an outreach approach for psychiatric assessment and engagement, and be able to wait 24 hours for initiation of services. A psychiatric diagnosis is not required.

Areas of Service:
Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens.
