Building Coordinated Crisis Response Registration
Welcome!

We require an RSVP filled out by 12pm CST on the day of the BCCR. 

*NOTE* You do not need RSVP more than once. We will resend you the link each month :)

Once we review your RSVP we will send you a zoom link via email. You may use this form to register for every month and do not need to re-register each month.

The BCCR is held the second Thursday of each month from 2pm-4pm PST/ 4pm-6pm CST/5pm-7pm EST via zoom. CART & ASL provided. These sessions are not recorded.

Who is this space for?

This monthly virtual peer learning space is for groups and organizations working to collectively intervene in and respond to crises without police.

This is an abolitionist collaborative learning space where participants are invited to share knowledge, experience, and expertise, as well as questions, uncertainties, nuance, and disagreements. 

We are focused on non-carceral, non-police crisis response and prevention programs. We believe coercive mental health interventions and mandated reporting are control and a carceral response.

Who is hosting this space?

Just Practice Collaborative is hosting this space beginning in January 2024. We are honored to carry on the BCCR in the spirit of its founders at Interrupting Criminalization.

Recognizing that unmet mental health, housing, and health care needs, domestic violence, and sexual assault often precipitate or contribute to crisis and lead to criminalization of women, girls, trans and gender nonconforming people, we are committed to supporting development and growth of coordinated community-based responses that do not engage systems of policing or punishment.

Recognizing that unmet mental health, housing, and health care needs, domestic violence, and sexual assault often precipitate or contribute to crisis and lead to criminalization of women, girls, trans and gender nonconforming people, we are committed to supporting development and growth of coordinated community-based responses that do not engage systems of policing or punishment.

All of our planning team and facilitators have both experienced a need for crisis response and offered crisis response. We all identify as survivors.

What can I expect?

This is a drop-in space open to anyone committed to building coordinated, non-carceral, non-police crisis response and prevention and to collaborative learning - no one is the expert; we are all learning and growing toward the future we want together.

Our general format is to spend the first hour discussing a particular theme or challenge related to coordinated community crisis response and then invite folks to bring questions, scenarios, issues to workshop with the group in the second half. 

While we work to create a safer abolitionist space, as a drop-in space, we can’t guarantee that there aren’t people who work with law enforcement in the space or the confidentiality of what is shared. To increase our digital security, we require an RSVP filled out by 12pm PST on the day of the BCCR. Once we review your RSVP we will send you a zoom link via email.

Where can I get more information and support about building my coordinated crisis response project?

You can make an appointment with the Transformative Justice Help Desk to talk more about your specific project’s needs, questions and challenges. The TJ Help Desk is a thought partnership that is here to support individuals and grassroots groups who are responding to, intervening on and transforming violence without the use of prisons, police and state systems.
