Imagine your community spends $50M on mental health crisis service improvements, only to see the buildings unused and people in crisis continuing to be mistreated.

We took a peek inside a shuttered Bronx facility where NYPD cops are supposed to take emotionally distressed New Yorkers to get help. Another center in East Harlem has served just 45 people — coming out to $1.1 million per visit.

Travis was quoted in this article about peer respite facilities!

A growing number of “peer respites,” nonclinical settings for psychiatric recovery, can help people in distress who mainly need to talk to people who understand their problems.

The Crisis Podcast has over 1,500 listens since being released earlier this year! While some podcasts get these numbers in a day or a week, I am over-the-(full) moon thrilled and grateful or everyone who’s given it a listen.

More episodes are coming in November,
But in the meantime, here’s 3 things you can do to pass the time:

1. Check out the latest episode, a live interview with Dr. Debra Pinals of the MI Dept of Health & Human Services and the University of Michigan.

2. Share the podcast with your friends and colleagues that work in behavioral health, addictions, criminal justice, or social services.

3. Check out my sister podcast, The Crisis Podcast: COVID-19, with interviews from crisis providers talking about their experience serving others in a behavioral health crisis during the pandemic.

Cheers!
