Community Crisis Response is compassionate, culturally competent care delivered to people in need by community members who are, unlike police, actually trained to help. Groups providing this care are called community crisis response teams, or CCRTs.

Right now, most CCRTs are forced to balance developing the skills they need to deliver care while also applying for grants, managing team members, earning the trust of communities, and more. This is where we come in! 

Community Response Works is on a mission to make community crisis care accessible for every person living in the US. And to make it happen, we’re building the tools and fostering the relationships that CCRTs need to grow and sustain this work at scale.

We’re the developers of Patch, a mobile app that helps organizations coordinate and deliver care. We designed it to solve the major problems that CCRTs face: dispatching personnel, communicating securely, and analyzing response data.

We also convene the PATCH Network: an unprecedented, nationwide network of mobile crisis teams, health and social services, and abolitionist organizations managing or interested in establishing CCRTs. 

CCRTs in the PATCH Network have access to best-in-class technology, trainings tailored to their needs, and a cohort of like-minded teams to grow alongside.

By 2030, we want to route 10 million calls for crisis care away from police and towards CCRTs. And along the way, we’ll empower communities, save lives, and fundamentally transform public safety in the United States.
