The Chaffey College Police Department was awarded a $550,000 project grant from the Department of Justice's Criminal and Juvenile Justice and Mental Health Collaboration Program (CFDA 16.745) to establish the Higher Education Assessment Team (HEAT) crisis response and threat assessment program. Working in partnership with the San Bernardino Department of Behavioral Health and the University of Southern California School of Social Work, HEAT will provide proactive assessment, intervention, screening and identification, case management, monitoring, and training to the Chaffey College community. Specifically, grant funds will support a HEAT crisis response team consisting of dedicated Chaffey College police officers, a full-time clinician, and part-time intelligence analysts. The team will work closely with Chaffey College's existing Behavior Intervention Team to identify and address student mental health needs, ensure student success, and enhance campus safety. The program aims to intervene early and refer at-risk individuals to appropriate services to mitigate potential threats. Services will be provided from October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2025.
