Community Crisis Response Program

Modeled in part after the Crisis Assistance Helping Out On The Streets (CAHOOTS) program out of Eugene, Oregon, the Community Crisis Response Program (CCRP) will support the social services systems for resolving the significant and complex needs of Richmond residents. 

Our CCRP mobile response teams, officially known as ROCK (Reach Out with Compassion and Kindness) responders, will be available to help Richmond Police and Emergency services address the current gaps in responsive services contributing to a newly defined safety hub rooted in addressing community trauma through community-based alternatives.
