CIT is a collaborative effort between law enforcement and the mental health community to help law enforcement officers and emergency responders handle incidents involving people with mental illness. CIT is a community-based collaboration between law enforcement, NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness), the Medina County ADAMH Board, Alternative Paths, and mental health consumers. Officers and emergency personnel receive 40 hours of training in mental illness, crisis intervention, de-escalation techniques and the local mental health system. 
Attendees learn to integrate their police and emergency responder training with new skills and approaches to respond to a person they believe has a mental disorder or persons experiencing a psychiatric crisis.
