Abbott Solutions for Justice empowers law enforcement, behavioral health organizations, and universities with expert consultation, hands-on training, and tailored program development to build safer, more effective crisis response systems. Led by Dr. Sarah Abbott and backed by our elite law enforcement training team, we draw on 20 years of proven field experience, cutting-edge research, and national leadership in the Co-Response model.

Co-Response Program Development

We help agencies create or strengthen existing police–behavioral health partnerships tailored to local needs.

Our support includes:

  • Program design, staffing models, and workflow development

  • On-scene integration of clinical response

  • Documentation templates, policies, and supervision structures

  • Launch planning and implementation coaching

  • Sustainability strategies, including funding and community partnerships

    Our approach ensures agencies build programs that last, not just programs that launch.
