By Lindsey Coulter<\/p>\n

FISHERSVILLE, VA \u2014 Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin joined state and community partners on Dec. 9 to launch construction of the Valley Crisis Receiving Center (CRC) in Fishersville, a major step forward in strengthening crisis response through the Commonwealth\u2019s Right Help, Right Now<\/a> behavioral health transformation and ensuring individuals experiencing a behavioral health emergency have a dedicated place to receive immediate care and stabilization.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThis is how we build a system that responds to every Virginian with urgency, dignity, and compassion,\u201d said Youngkin. \u201cInstead of waiting in a hospital hallway or in the back of a police vehicle, people in crisis will walk into the new Valley Crisis Receiving Center \u2014 a space designed to help them reclaim stability and hope. The Valley region is demonstrating innovation, accountability, and a commitment to public safety in action. Together, we are delivering the right help, right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Construction will begin next year for the center, which will include 16 CRC chairs and 16 Crisis Stabilization Unit beds and will be operated by the Valley Community Services Board (CSB). Services will include 24\/7 medical screening, clinical evaluation, peer support, and care coordination. The region\u2019s Crisis Intervention Team Assessment Center will relocate into the new building after it opens, which will allow for faster transfers and more therapeutic environments for individuals under Emergency Custody and Temporary Detention Orders.<\/p>\n

Valley crisis teams currently respond to more than 1,180 crisis interventions per year across Augusta and Highland Counties and the cities of Staunton and Waynesboro. They work closely with local law enforcement and hospitals across the region.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe Valley has a history of building smarter pathways into care, and this center continues that leadership,\u201d said Secretary of Health and Human Resources Janet V. Kelly. \u201cFamilies will gain faster access to treatment, hospitals will stay focused on medical emergencies, and individuals will receive care with dignity at the moment they need it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The facility design supports privacy, mobility, and rapid access to clinical engagement. The Valley CSB also championed Transfer of Custody agreements with Augusta Health security. This partnership reduces the time officers would otherwise remain in emergency departments and allows them to return to their core public safety duties more quickly.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe are designing the future of crisis response. This approach connects therapeutic care, modern infrastructure, and efficient law enforcement coordination,\u201d said Nelson Smith, Commissioner of the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. \u201cBy reducing processing times and creating a consistent statewide model, we are building speed into the system and helping officers return to their core public safety duties more quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Valley CSB will operate the center with support from Augusta Health<\/a>, Western State Hospital<\/a>, regional CSBs<\/a>, and first responder agencies.<\/p>\n

The facility is supported by more than $16 million in combined capital and operating investments through state behavioral health funding and regional partnerships.<\/p>\n

The Right Help, Right Now<\/a> initiative is a three-year, $1.4 billion transformation of Virginia\u2019s behavioral health system focused on expanding crisis care, strengthening community-based services, improving the behavioral health workforce, and ensuring Virginians in crisis have someone to call, someone to respond and a safe place to go.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
