Marion County Adds REACH Treat Team

(Salem, OR) -- Marion County has a new program that will respond to 9-1-1 calls when police aren't needed. The REACH Team includes a mental health worker, a firefighter paramedic and an EMT. 9-1-1 operators will determine whether REACH or police officers need to respond. The program also complements the national 9-8-8 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, offering another pathway for residents experiencing a behavioral crisis to get help.
