Co-Response Teams (CRT) are a collaboration between the NYPD and DOHMH. CRT is a pre- and post-crisis intervention. Each team includes two police officers and one behavioral health professional. These teams work 14 hours per day, 7 days per week, to serve community members presenting with mental health or substance use challenges who are at an elevated risk of harm to themselves or others. The teams offer short-term engagement to facilitate connections to care and linkages to support services.
