City Commissioners heard a presentation from Alluvion Health CEO Trista Besich on the proposed Crisis Intervention Program that would coordinate services for mental health services across stakeholders in law enforcement and the judicial system at the commission’s work session Tuesday night.
Besich made the presentation as a first step in requesting the city join the project charter as a stakeholder, as the Cascade County Commission moved to do last week. There was general interest in the program from all commissioners, with questions raised about overlap with existing programs and implementation.
“I see tremendous potential and benefit here in this program, especially to local law enforcement,” Commissioner Rick Tryon said.
More than 23,250 second doses have been administered in the county, Green said.
The county is currently giving inoculating health care workers; residents and staff of long-term care facilities; people who are 65 years old or older; and child care and school workers.
Those who are eligible can make an appointment to get a vaccine at the county’s website. Those who need assistance can call 910-678-7657.
Help is available
County residents who are having trouble paying their rent or utility bills because of the COVID-19 pandemic can apply for help, officials said. Families with school-aged children also can seek assistance for help paying for food.
