Talk:ANCHOR

Need to find citation

This is a bootstrap paradox of sorts but I have to publish this somewhere before I can make it a reference. It's an email from Afton Schneider, the current communications director for Charlottesville I received on September 13, 2024 but have not yet used anywhere yet.

"The City of Charlottesville’s Co-Responder team, ANCHOR, launched services on July 1. ANCHOR stands for Assisting with Navigation, Crisis Response, and Outreach Resources. This is a collaboration between the Department of Human Services, Charlottesville Police Department, Charlottesville Fire Department and Partner for Mental Health. The first few weeks of ANCHOR include training, community engagement, and responding to mental health crises and follow ups after opioid overdoes. The major activities of ANCHOR include providing support, consultation, and connections to resources. There are five current members of the team. The Albemarle County’s counterpart, HART, continues to be a resource throughout the launching phase of the program." --Seantubbs (talk) 17:15, 24 September 2024 (EDT)
