 Crisis Intervention
$15,000,000
Crisis Response: Expand the City of Phoenix Community Assistance Program in 
order to provide additional resources for responding to behavioral and mental 
health calls for service using a civilian model. Full implementation of the enhanced 
program is anticipated to take 18-24 months. During this time the City plans to 
seek input from the community and mental and behavioral health stakeholders to 
ensure that the program meets the needs of all. Staff also plans to engage an 
independent consultant to conduct a thorough review of the program to include 
process mapping, best practices identification, community engagement, 
developing performance measures, and developing the scope of the behavioral 
health unit request for proposal. The concept is to create an effective City of 
Phoenix behavioral and mental health crisis response program where multiple city 
departments work alongside non-profit organizations and the behavioral health 
community to improve the quality of life for residents in need. The program will also 
allow first responders to return to core public safety emergencies to reduce 
response times.
