SCOE's School-Based Mobile Crisis Answered 80+ Calls

Through a contract from Solano County Behavioral Health (SCBH), SCOE is providing school-based mobile crisis services and screening/assessment services. These services are being implemented in collaboration with the county, school districts/sites, local police departments and community partners. SCOE has trained clinicians and crisis specialists to respond to crisis situations on K-12 school campuses serving youth experiencing a mental health crisis. So far this school year, more than 80 calls for service to school sites have been answered, demonstrating a significant need for mental health supports.

All students in need are served with the mission of de-escalating situations, linking families to necessary services, and supporting the coordination of care. School-based mobile crisis services provided through SCOE differ slightly from the community-based mobile crisis services provided by SCBH. The SCOE team specializes in supporting schools and districts and is familiar with school initiatives, communities and protocols.
