Volunteer Faculty

CIT was recognized as essential to the well-being of Memphis and it was decided the effort must be the responsibility of the entire community. Mental health professionals and educators voluntarily joined NAMI members, criminal justice professionals and individuals with mental illness to provide the necessary training and consultation to CIT Officers at no charge to the Memphis Police Department. This tradition has continued in CIT programs throughout the nation.
