The State of Connecticut (CT), represented by the Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS), is soliciting proposals from qualified independent organizations to provide Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) Training. DMHAS is the primary funding entity for CIT Training for law enforcement in CT. CIT Training aims to provide a comprehensive training program that includes education, tools and resources for local/municipal and state (State Troopers) law enforcement, first responders, and behavioral health clinicians on how to interact and engage with individuals who may be experiencing a behavioral health (mental health and/or substance use) crisis.

SLED stands for State, Local, and Education. These are solicitations issued by state governments, counties, cities, school districts, utilities, and higher education institutions — as opposed to federal agencies.
