In this new era of crisis care, Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) are pivotal in many nationwide call centers and mobile crisis programs. To support CCBHCs, the BHL Platform supports and enhances key areas such as 988 integration, comprehensive crisis services, funding and expansion assistance, and community partnerships.
Here’s a checklist to help determine if the BHL Platform can help your CCBHC achieve its goals:

CCBHCs are partnering with the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, serving as direct call centers or immediate care providers for mobile crisis response and stabilization. This partnership ensures timely care and reduces the burden on emergency services and law enforcement. This is how the BHL Platform can help:
