The Mobile Crisis Rapid Response Team (MCRRT) responds to 911 calls where mental health concerns and/or crises are identified. The team pairs a Mental Health Specialist from St. Leonard’s with a police officer from Brantford Police Services or Brant County OPP.
The team provides:
- Assessment of risk to the safety of the person and others
- On-site safety planning
- De-escalation
- Stabilization strategies
- Referrals to ongoing services provided by St. Leonard’s Community Services or community partners
MCRRT only responds to 911 calls. Contact our Crisis Telephone Line for other crisis counselling support.
