Crisis Intervention Team (CIT)
The Belgrade Police Department currently has twelve graduates of the Crisis Intervention Academy and they are now members of the Gallatin County Crisis Intervention Team
The magnitude of the problem of untreated
mental illness is revealed not only in the numbers, but also in the
consequences. More than one million people with schizophrenia and
manic-depressive illness are not being treated on any given day.
These individuals are more likely to experience homelessness,
suicide, incarceration, victimization, and violence. For years, the
law enforcement community has borne the brunt of this crisis with
its officers responding to individuals who become psychotic and
sometimes dangerous.
