Team members will present on the work of Indiana’s 988 core area planning committees, collaborations between 988 and 911, how 988 will fit into Indiana’s larger crisis continuum, and the funding strategies being explored to build and sustain it.

• Wellness & Self-Care for Law Enforcement, First Responders, Public Safety and Criminal Justice Professionals
