FEATURED PROGRAM

Community Paramedic Behavioral Health Team
The Community Paramedic Behavioral Health Team is a partnership with Compass Health, Fire District 1, and the Verdant Health Commission to address the on-going behavioral health needs of our community members.
The program focuses on promoting recovery and resiliency through active support. It involves a community-based behavioral health outreach team with the ability to respond to and provide services in the community – their emphasis is on reaching individuals in their homes and their natural environment. Behavioral health encompasses both mental health and substance use, and this team consists of Community Paramedics, a Mental Health Professional, and Peer Counselors who are able to serve adults, adolescents, and children. This is a voluntary service available to those who are experiencing a behavioral health crisis or are in need of connection to behavioral health services and are physically located in Fire District 1’s response region (Brier, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace, and portions of unincorporated Snohomish County). For more information, call (425) 551-1239 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
