Sound remains a steadfast source of support for King Countyās most vulnerable. Our team navigates challenges with a guiding mantra: do the next right thing. From expanding access to care through programs like Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHCs) and Mobile Rapid Response Crisis Teams (MRRCT) to advocating for Medicaid funding, we are committed to ensuring hope, healing, and recovery for our community. Despite policy uncertainties, we continue to stand strong in our mission. Thank you for your unwavering support.
SOUNDās Mobile Rapid Response Crisis Teams (MRRCT) provide 24/7, community-based crisis intervention without law enforcement involvement. Staffed by mental health professionals and peer specialists, the teams use de-escalation techniques, harm reduction, and trauma-informed care to support individuals in distress. By prioritizing safety, dignity, and connection to services, MRRCT helps stabilize crises while reducing hospitalizations and incarceration.
Washington has received a $1 million SAMHSA grant to support the Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC) model, a crucial step toward a stronger behavioral health system. SOUND is proud to help lead this initiative in King County. As the 2025 Legislative Session continues, we are actively advocating to protect behavioral health funding and have secured key legislative sponsorships to support our programs. Amid ongoing challenges, we remain committed to our mission: Improving lives by providing equitable, recovery-focused behavioral health care for all.
