Partnership Between AltaPointe Health and the Mobile Police Department Revolutionizes Response to Mental Health Crises

AltaPointe’s Crisis Response

AltaPointe Health and the Mobile Police Department have joined forces to improve responses to mental health crises. This collaboration seeks to reduce 911 calls related to mental health, limit law enforcement involvement in non-violent situations, and ensure individuals receive immediate treatment instead of facing arrest.

By providing on-the-spot crisis intervention, AltaPointe crisis response helps first responders de-escalate situations quickly and effectively. As a result, individuals in crisis receive the care they need, while officers can focus on public safety.
