The interactive dashboard allows residents to learn about the county’s three-pillared response to behavioral health crises and how the department plans to address the county’s behavioral health needs. The three pillars are the suicide prevention and mental health crisis lifeline, the mobile crisis response team and the crisis stabilization facility.

A crisis stabilization facility has not yet been established, although there is the possibility of reopening the Journey Home Crisis Stabilization Facility in Helena to fulfill this pillar.

At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
