In an effort to better serve people experiencing mental health issues in Steamboat Springs, the Steamboat Springs Police Department and Mind Springs Health have created a 24-hour co-responder program where a mental health counselor will respond with a patrol officer when police dispatchers receive mental health-related calls.
Learn more about co-responder programs and how partnerships such as these are created between police departments and community mental health centers by reading this article in the Steamboat Pilot & Today.
