Zepf Center, a Toledo-based, non-profit behavioral health and vocational services clinic for youth and adults with severe and persistent mental illness and those struggling with addiction, has launched new crisis care services.
While the larger program planned will take time to implement, as of July 1, Zepf Center is offering a Crisis CARE Line and a Crisis CARE Mobile Outreach Team to ensure that help is available 24/7 for individuals in Lucas County experiencing a psychiatric crisis.
These new services came about when the Mental Health & Recovery Services Board of Lucas County (MHRSB) asked Zepf Center to assist with ensuring continuity of crisis services in Lucas County in light of the planned July 30 closing of Rescue Mental Health & Addiction Services.
