Crisis Response Team Training (Previously Mobile Crisis Training)

Recovery Innovations, as lead writers of the Crisis Now Model, has brought together the same experts who helped shape national crisis system design to collaboratively develop this training. Grounded in the SAMHSA National Guidelines for Behavioral Health Crisis Care: Best Practices Toolkit, this curriculum reflects the highest standards in the field and translates them into practical application.

This training was co-developed by a multidisciplinary group of subject matter experts—including peer support specialists with lived experience, clinicians, behavioral health leaders, and medical professionals—ensuring it is both evidence-based and grounded in real-world practice. The result is a comprehensive, person-centered learning experience that equips individuals and organizations across all roles to respond effectively, build stronger crisis systems, and improve outcomes for the people they serve.

NOTE: Priority will be given to those who are seeking Credit Hours for licensure.
