Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Training is a nationally recognized program that teaches law enforcement safe and effective approaches to handling crisis incidents involving an individual living with mental illness. The intensive 4-day training is conducted under the instructional supervision of local CIT-trained police officers, mental health professionals, consumers, and family advocates and will offer practical techniques for de-escalating crisis situations. Companion Courses use some of the CIT Academy curriculum adapted for Dispatchers, Courts and Jail Personnel, Behavioral Health Professionals, and others.
