In this special roundtable, host Doria Fleisher is joined by three local experts — Janay Tyler, Crisis Response Coordinator for the Charles County Local Behavioral Health Authority; Captain Baker, Commander of Community Services for the Charles County Sheriff's Office; and Caitland Kelshaw, Paramedic and Pediatric Champion with the Department of Emergency Services — to discuss mental health resources and crisis response in Charles County. They cover everything from 911 and 988 services, to crisis intervention training, mobile crisis teams, and community support programs. Whether you're facing a challenge yourself or want to support someone who is, this conversation reminds us that help is available — and none of us has to face it alone.
