2025 Crisis Intervention Team Training
19 new, local law enforcement, corrections and probation officers became certified Crisis Intervention Team officers on August 22, 2025. The goal of a CIT is to de-escalate situations, improve safety for both officers and individuals with mental illness, ensure appropriate mental health care access, and divert people from the justice system into treatment. These programs involve specialized training for officers, collaboration between law enforcement and mental health services, and community partnerships.
5th Annual Suicide Prevention Breakfast
The Four County ADAMhs Board in partnership with the Four County Suicide Prevention Coalition and the NWOESC hosted the 5th Annual Suicide Prevention Breakfast. Community members enjoyed a free breakfast while learning about local suicide prevention efforts in the four county area. Attendees were also offered the opportunity to get involved and help raise awareness.
