Since 2020, Denver, Colorado, has been operating a crisis-response program known as STAR (Support Team Assisted Response). The STAR program pairs paramedics and behavioral health professionals on designated vans to respond to certain 911 calls in lieu of a conventional response from law enforcement or other first responders. The STAR van teams work to de-escalate the immediate crisis and make referrals to a network of community-based service providers through the STAR Community Coalition.
