Mental Health Emergency Assessment and Response Team
The Mental Health Emergency Assessment and Response Team (MHEART) is a collaborative team of licensed mental health clinicians and University of Maryland police who respond to mental health crises on and around the University of Maryland, College Park campus.
We believe involving well-trained, culturally-responsive mental health clinicians in crisis response is the most comprehensive approach to addressing mental health crises and emergencies experienced by our students. MHEART strives to place the physical and emotional safety and health of the student as its priority by providing the least invasive and most efficacious interventions.
MHEART will engage the UMD community through outreach and provide mental health related training to the UMD police.
