Describe the interviewee’s role in the crisis intervention team.

Assignment Content
Crisis intervention teams are networked individuals with plans, processes, and resources in place to readily respond to a crisis. Like a system of gears, each part of the team needs to work in synchronicity, not isolation. When the crisis intervention system doesn’t function, marginalized individuals are often the ones to pay the price. In this assignment, you interview someone who is involved with crisis intervention within the criminal justice system about what works and doesn’t work for their organization.
