FSCC operates a mobile crisis response team providing counseling and referral services, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in both Chemung and Schuyler Counties.
About the Crisis Program:
FSCC has been providing Mobile Crisis Services for Chemung and Schuyler Counties since 2002. The Crisis Program has helped thousands of individuals and families through difficult times providing effective, compassionate, and confidential crisis intervention services.
When a crisis occurs, we are often the first to respond. We help stabilize the situation and lessen the impact of distressing situations or critical incidents.
Afterward, we offer appropriate referrals to other community services for long-term solutions and assistance.
