The MSSU Behavioral Intervention Team has transitioned into MOSO Cares. The purpose of the MOSO Cares Team is to be proactive in identifying and assisting those who are distressed and/or exhibiting disruptive or dangerous behaviors. Our goal is to come alongside individuals in need of support, guidance, or other intervention and connect them with the resources they need to be successful and hopefully reduce their risk of crisis.
