NAMI Indiana's Technical Assistance Center provides resources for Crisis Intervention Team programs in Indiana
(Operated by NAMI Indiana - Indiana's leading subject matter expert on Crisis Intervention Team program development and best practices) with the support of the Division of Mental Health and Addiction and in coordination with the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy. We also provide Sequential Intercept Model (SIM) Mapping Workshops through our SIM Mapping Network and continuing education for professionals.
​
IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A SUICIDAL CRISIS, MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS, SUBSTANCE USE CRISIS, OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS CALL 988 TO SPEAK TO A TRAINED CRISIS SPECIALIST 24/7.
If the nature of the crisis requires a response from the Fire Department, Law Enforcement, or EMS, call 911.

Mini-grants are available to Law Enforcement Agencies to help offset overtime or travel expenses incurred when they send an officer to a 40-hour CIT class, and are available to Indiana CIT Coordinators for hosting a 40-hour CIT class, program certification, becoming a Certified Coordinator, and more.
