New Year, New ICRA Website Experience

We've been working hard to make our website easier for you to navigate.


The homepage now features big, bold slides that send you straight to things like timely CoRCon announcements. It's also easier than ever for ICRA members to get right to our Co-Responder Coffee Break sign-up page and our CR Chat forum.


In the coming months, we'll continue to add photos to pages. If you'd like to contribute images of your team in action, email them to icra@coresponderalliance.org.

National Survey of Mobile Crisis Programs
A team of researchers at Columbia University and Wayne State University are launching a national survey of mobile crisis programs and the ICRA network is invited to participate by January 31!
This is an exciting opportunity to build the evidence base for mobile crisis programs across the country, including co-responder programs, and alternative or community responder programs, in addition to behavioral health provider mobile crisis programs and mobile response and stabilization services (MRSS).
If you have a question, email the study team at MobileCrisisSurvey@nyspi.columbia.edu.
