Why Co-Responding
The increasing severity of mental health calls presents significant challenges for law enforcement, particularly regarding the perception of negative relations between officers and individuals struggling with mental health issues. MH1R Consulting is positioned to help bridge this gap, fostering stronger relationships between the community and law enforcement.
With a network of established community partnerships and collaborations nationwide, MH1R Consulting continues to expand these connections to provide essential resources. These partnerships enable co-responders to ensure continuity of care for individuals in crisis, while strengthening the integrated collaboration with law enforcement agencies to deliver more effective, compassionate responses to mental health-related incidents.
MH1R Consulting’s approach ensures that co-responders have the necessary tools to connect community members to the appropriate care and resources, enhancing both community trust and law enforcement’s ability to address mental health crises more effectively.
