Introduced
Summary
National Co-Responder and Crisis Clinician Week would be designated for Sept. 13–19, 2026 to recognize teams that pair law enforcement, fire, and emergency medical staff with behavioral health professionals. The resolution highlights that more than 1 in 5 United States adults live with a mental illness, notes ongoing opioid impacts, and says co-responder teams help de-escalate crises, link people to counseling, medications and substance use treatment, and connect people to housing, food, and other supports while responding to thousands of calls annually.
