Join SAMHSA to Discuss the New Report on Financing Peer Crisis Respites in the U.S. Thursday, November 21, 2–3 p.m. ET SAMHSA is issuing a report from the Center for Financing Reform and Innovation (CFRI) on Financing Peer Crisis Respites in the United States. Peer crisis respites are recovery-oriented programs that can successfully provide trauma-informed care to individuals in behavioral health crises. The emerging evidence base demonstrates the efficacy of peer crisis respites, but to date there are few studies on the cost-effectiveness of these programs. Learn more about this report during SAMHSA’s webinar, which will highlight findings from the report and the benefits of peer crisis respites for a recovery-oriented continuum of crisis care, and will identify common components, operations, and funding solutions of peer crisis respites from a national sample of programs across the United States.
