UNSPSC 85911015 Crisis Intervention, a Commodity code, encompasses mental health counseling, crisis response, stabilization services, and behavioral health support delivered to vulnerable populations—children, youth, adults, and families experiencing acute mental health episodes, homelessness, substance use disorders, or trauma. State and local governments are actively soliciting crisis intervention services under this code, ranging from embedded peer support for first responders to intensive mobile response teams, residential stabilization programs, and therapeutic counseling for justice-involved and at-risk populations. The mix of issuing bodies includes county human services departments, state health and behavioral health agencies, municipal emergency services, school districts, and correctional facilities, with particularly active procurement from Colorado (CDPHE PATH4EMS), Utah (Department of Health and Human Services), Texas (Health and Human Services Commission), and a diverse set of counties and cities across the South and West. Recent opportunities reflect a market emphasis on crisis de-escalation, substance abuse intervention, and housing-linked behavioral health models rather than traditional inpatient psychiatric care.

Representative recent opportunities include the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment soliciting multiple contracts for PATH4EMS Peer Assistance mental health counseling serving EMS providers and families across Arapahoe and Denver counties (RFP RFPFAAA20260002323, responses due May 28, 2026, $125 per hour capped at $1,875 annually per participant); the Utah Department of Health and Human Services requesting a five-year Stabilization and Mobile Response contract serving eight Western Region counties with 24/7 crisis triage, mobile face-to-face response, and intensive in-home stabilization ($5 million total, September 18, 2026 start, RFP DHHS26085, due July 7, 2026); and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issuing an IFB for on-call counseling services at Denton State Supported Living Center for individuals with developmental disabilities requiring 24/7 availability and 45-minute response times ($100,000 annual guideline, four-year term starting September 1, 2026, IFB HHS0017465, due July 6, 2026). Solano County (California) similarly posted a $1.2 million Year 1 RFP for behavioral health interim housing and emergency shelter combining short-term drop-in and longer-term stabilization beds for adults with serious mental illness experiencing homelessness (RFP 952060526, due July 8, 2026, interviews week of July 20 and service start October 1, 2026). School districts and cities are also active, with City Colleges of Chicago soliciting Mental Health Consultation Services for five Child Development Laboratory Schools (RFP NC2616, due August 7, 2026, 25% MBE/7% WBE participation goals) and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) requesting Mobile Response Team services with 60-minute response times for student behavioral health crises ($1.5 million annual budget, RFP 26061RFPDST, due March 25, 2026). Credible Mentor services—a peer support model rooted in justice-system reentry—appear twice in recent postings by the District of Columbia (DOC837387 due July 20, 2026; DOC825794 due June 25, 2026), signaling sustained local focus on reducing recidivism through lived-experience peer support. First-responder psychological support is prominent, with Waukesha County (Wisconsin) requesting proposals for post-conditional psychological evaluations and fitness-for-duty assessments for Sheriff Department employees (RFP 2026014, due August 4, 2026), and the City of New Haven Police Department procuring comprehensive psychological testing of police candidates administered by licensed clinicians under Connecticut POST Council Regulation (RFP 2026RFPCNH381, due August 4, 2026). The geographic spread spans the upper Midwest (Wisconsin, Ohio), Mid-Atlantic (Pennsylvania, South Carolina), South (Texas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi), West (Colorado, Utah, Arizona), and Northeast (Connecticut, District of Columbia, New York), with Colorado and Texas showing the highest recent solicitation velocity.
