The Crisis Support Team (CST) is a free resource for guidance and advice for school administrators or youth leaders when dealing with tragic events such as a suicide, suicide attempt, automobile related injury, school violence, and death that sometime happen in our schools, churches, youth organizations, and communities.
Crisis Support Team (CST) is a collaborative effort between The Jason Foundation, Inc. and Acadia Healthcare. CST will provide telephonic assistance from clinical professionals who will listen and share insights on the most appropriate way to handle a crisis event. This service is NOT crisis counseling for individuals, but rather guidance for administrators or leaders responding to groups dealing with adverse events.
First contact is made via a special website by filing out a short, informational form. Connection to a clinical advisor typically occurs within 24 hours of contacting the Team. Weekends or holidays can delay the response to the next business day.
