Who We Are

At the District 19 Community Services Board, Community-Based Crisis Stabilization provides individualized crisis services on an outpatient basis. Resources and natural support systems are mobilized during the crisis episode to avert unnecessary psychiatric hospitalization and to assist the individual to remain in the community. Services begin with a face-to-face intake of persons experiencing an acute psychiatric crisis which may jeopardize the community living situation. If the individual meets the program's eligibility criteria, consumers are treated in the community, with services provided in their home.

Crisis Stabilization services are direct behavioral health care to non-hospitalized individuals, of all ages, experiencing an acute crisis of a psychiatric nature that may jeopardize their current community living situation. The program's goals are:

  • to avert hospitalization or rehospitalization;
  • provide normative environments with a high assurance of safety and security for crisis intervention;
  • stabilize individuals in psychiatric crisis;
  • mobilize the resources of the community support system, family members, and others for ongoing maintenance, rehabilitation and recovery.
