If eligible, you will receive a same day appointment.

Pre-Commitment Services

We assist families, friends, or agencies in determining whether a person meets the legal criteria for involuntary commitment and treatment. Persons who meet the criteria are those who have a mental disorder, are unwilling to seek voluntary treatment and, as a result of their mental disorder, are dangerous to themselves or others, or are unable to provide their own basic needs.

We will provide:

• Consultation to relatives, friends, the community, social service agencies, and law enforcement regarding involuntary commitment.
• Hospital screening and crisis intervention 24 hours a day at clinics or hospital emergency rooms.
• Information regarding alternatives to commitment
• Liaison to the court and Benton County psychiatric units
