Richmond Convention Center
We invite you to join us for our annual Virginia Crisis Intervention Team Conference. In partnership with the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services, local Community Services Boards, and law enforcement agencies across the Commonwealth, we are excited to offer this 2.5-day training opportunity.
This year’s theme focuses on “Building Bridges: Connecting Crisis Response Systems”, exploring how we can strengthen collaboration between law enforcement, behavioral health services, and community resources to create a seamless crisis response network.
The conference provides exceptional networking opportunities with peers from across Virginia and beyond, sharing best practices, innovative approaches, and success stories in crisis intervention.
