City of Flagstaff to hold Special Council Work Session on alternate response care center on Sept. 25

FLAGSTAFF — The City of Flagstaff is hosting a Special Council Work Session on Friday, September 24th between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. to discuss an alternate response care center. A care center is a proposed component of the City’s Public Safety Alternate Response Model. The purpose of the Model is to engage those in need with the most appropriate services and keep them safe while reducing the amount of contact with the justice system and emergency room, when possible.

The goal of the special Council work session is to share the City’s progress to date on its Public Safety Alternate Response Model and host a discussion on an alternate response care center. The City is interested in hearing feedback from the public on important elements of a potential care center and how such a center could fit within existing services provided in the Flagstaff community.

Both in-person and virtual attendance by members of the public is encouraged. An in-person meeting will be held in the City Hall Council Chambers. The public can also join the meeting virtually by clicking on the Microsoft Teams meeting link below.
