The Massachusetts Department of Mental Health developed a Center For Police Training In Crisis Intervention (The Center). The Center serves as a source and a clearinghouse for cost-effective, evidence-based mental health and substance use and crisis intervention training programs for law enforcement agencies and other public safety personnel. It supports, coordinates, promotes, facilitates and takes inventory of training opportunities that are provided directly by grant-funded regional Training & Technical Assistance Centers (TTACs) and other related grant-funded projects supported by DMH.
In July 2024, the Center for Police Training in Crisis Intervention launched the Department of Mental Health Jail Diversion Programs (DMH-JDP) Learning Management System (LMS). This initiative, aligned with the provisions of Mass. General Laws c.19 § 25 (2018), is designed to ensure easy access to the Center’s recommended trainings, along with other valuable educational resources.
