Eagle Valley Behavioral Health, a founding Alliance member, has launched a pilot crisis-response coordination model tailored to the specific challenges of mountain communities — high seasonal population swings, long EMS travel times, and limited backup behavioral-health capacity.

The Alliance is supporting the pilot’s data and policy framing. Early findings will inform statewide policy positions on rural and underserved systems.
