Mobile Crisis Management

Monarch’s Mobile Crisis Management consists of the support, services and treatments necessary to provide integrated crisis response, crisis stabilization interventions, and crisis prevention activities for children, teens and adults who are experiencing an acute mental health crisis. Mobile Crisis Management services are available 24/7, 365 days a year. 

Mobile crisis responders provide an immediate evaluation, triage and access to mental health care resources for people with intellectual/developmental disabilities, mental illness or substance use disorders. Our goal is to promote symptom reduction, harm reduction, and to safely transition persons in acute crisis to appropriate crisis stabilization and detoxification supports/services.

Mobile Outreach Response Engagement Stabilization (MORES) Program
In Chatham County and within 48 hours of receiving crisis services, young people ages 3 to 20 who are experiencing escalating emotional and/or behavioral needs are eligible for the Mobile Outreach Response Engagement Stabilization (MORES) program. It provides up to four weeks of follow-up services by a team comprised of a licensed clinician, a team lead, a family support partner, and access to a child/adolescent psychiatrist as needed.
