Irvine has joined other Orange County cities using teams of medical workers to respond to mental health-related calls for service rather than relying on police.
The Irvine City Council on Tuesday night unanimously approved a yearlong pilot program, which will run from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, with Be Well OC. The city will use the first year to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. The city spent the last four months exploring the program before entering into the agreement.
The Be Well OC mobile response teams are based on a nationally recognized CAHOOTS mobile-crisis intervention program created in 1989 in Oregon. The model is now used by cities around the country, including Oakland, Portland and Denver, among others. So far in Orange County, Huntington Beach and Garden Grove are using the program. Last month, Anaheim approved a one-year pilot program with Be Well OC for the mobile response teams.Other cities are exploring the mobile response teams in other ways.
