Local CIT Programs in Indiana
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.
NAMI Indiana facilitates the CIT Indiana Coordinator Network, an advisory committee pursuant to I.C. 5-2-21.2-6(2) made up of local CIT coordinators across Indiana as well as representatives from NAMI Indiana, DMHA, ILEA, and researchers from IU. We meet every-other month to support each other and promote best practices in mental health policing and crisis intervention.
MISSION STATEMENT: Our mission at the CIT Indiana Coordinator Network is to support and facilitate the development, growth, and success of Crisis Intervention Teams throughout Indiana.
VISION STATEMENT: A person experiencing a mental health and/or substance use disorder crisis will receive a safe and empathetic response and access to care with a focus on recovery.
