The Aurora Mobile Response Team program is an alternative response to handling behavioral health crises.
The team pairs a mental health clinician from Aurora Mental Health with a paramedic or EMT from Falck Rocky Mountain to provide trauma-informed crisis intervention and de-escalation services on the scene to individuals experiencing a behavioral health crisis related to mental health, depression, homelessness, poverty, and/or substance use issues.
Currently, the service is available only in northwest Aurora through 2022 with potential expansion pending additional program funding. This program operates 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday.
If you witness a situation related to a behavioral health crisis and are in the service area, call 911 or the non-emergency dispatch line at 303.627.3100 and request Aurora Mobile Response Team support.
