Expected Goals. ● Goal 1: CMCRS services are available to all children, regardless of eligibility. BBH helps ensure there are sufficient crisis response teams to respond in person to a call within an average time of one hour. ● Goal 2: CMCRS services continue to help ensure that families will be connected with longer-term services, as needed, and help them navigate the process to access those services. ● Goal 3: As part of CMCRS services, WV maintains a toll-free hotline called the CCRL that is staffed 24 hours per day, seven days per week. Callers will be directly connected by a warm transfer to a CMCRS team of mental health professionals with competency-based training and experience working with children in crisis. BBH developed warm transfer protocols with the CCRL and CMCRS teams, which allow the caller to define the crisis and choose whether they prefer in-person or phone intervention. The CCRL stays on the line with the caller until they are connected with the CMCRS team. The CMCRS team has access to needed information regarding the child and family when the family provides consent (including any existing plans and/or the ISP).
