Introduction

The Memphis Crisis Intervention Team was created and implemented after a high profile incident involving police and a mentally ill subject where deadly force was used on 27 year old Joseph DeWayne Robinson on Sept 24th 1987 "shooting at the Lemoyne Gardens public housing project." Officers responded to the area on a report of a man stabbing himself and had inflicted as many as 120 wounds. The Memphis Police Department identified that there was areas for improvement, and partnered with local resources to create what is national and international known as the "Memphis" training model.
The basic goal of the CIT program is to improve Officer and Consumer Safety and to redirect Individuals with mental illness from the judicial system to the health care system.
