Advancing Crisis Care and Beyond: 10 Technical Assistance Papers to Foster Well-being and Promote Personal and Community Safety
This series of 10 papers aims to build upon the work being done to implement the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and the behavioral health services continuum that complements it. These papers also advance the work of prevention, safety, resiliency, and recovery, which complements the work in crisis services. Beginning with the “umbrella paper” that covers leading policy themes related to each of the subsequent papers, these papers highlight key areas of consideration for advancing crisis care and crisis care follow-up. In addition, the papers put forth recommendations for specific strategies to foster well-being and promote personal and community safety.
The papers will be published on the SAMHSA website as they become final.
