 2 

The provision of professional forums, meetings and conferences for the purpose of sharing best practices among CIT officers, CIT presenters, behavioral health and other health care professionals and community partners.

 3 

Continuous knowledge and skill development for CIT trained officers, presenters, behavioral health professionals and other first responders to support their healthy and safe communication and wellbeing.

 4 

Facilitation of ongoing dialogue and partnerships among behavioral health professionals, community partners and law enforcement.

 5 

The development and promulgation of evidence-based best practices by which California’s law enforcement, public safety agencies, and other first responders can improve service to people in crisis.
