Butler County CIT holds Advanced training; Our Black Rose postvention launched locally
Summary
County staff reported the first Advanced Crisis Intervention Team training May 4–5 and the launch of Our Black Rose postvention support with the coroner's office; the board heard plans for ongoing annual training and local distribution of care packages for suicide loss survivors.
Administrator Marni Rettig summarized two related public-safety items. She said Butler County held its first Advanced Crisis Intervention Team training May 4–5 for officers and first responders who previously completed the 40-hour introductory CIT, covering topics from housing insecurity to virtual-reality homelessness exercises. "Butler County CIT plans to offer Advanced CIT Training annually," Rettig said.
Rettig also described the May 1 launch of Our Black Rose in Butler County, a postvention program that prepares care boxes with supportive items and community resources for families after suicide loss; the Butler County Coroner’s Office will distribute packages at the time of loss. Board members acknowledged the partnership and its value to survivors and first responders.
