Thriving Mind’s Alisa Surenskaya, MSW, Children’s System of Care Manager, and Erica Heiblum, MS, RMHCI, Lead Adult System of Care Specialist, attended the Crisis Intervention Team meeting today in Miami.

Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Miami-Dade County program is a community-based approach that bridges the gaps between law enforcement and behavioral health. Through community partnerships and collaboration, this alliance promotes systems transformation that improves safety, reduces inappropriate incarceration and redirect individuals with mental illness and substance use disorders from the criminal justice system to the health care system, when appropriate.

Thriving Mind provider, New Horizons Community Mental Health Center, presented on its Living Room program, the only such program in the state of Florida. The Living Room is a community crisis respite program  that offers people experiencing a mild mental health crisis an alternative to hospitalization. Individuals can receive services.  When people experience a mental health crisis, they are faced with the decision to go to the emergency department or to try to manage the crisis themselves.  This provides an option of services in the crisis continuum.
