A ribbon cutting ceremony in Oceanside today marks the latest milestone in the County of San Diego’s commitment to prioritizing mental health and substance use services. A beautiful new community-based Crisis Stabilization Unit opened its doors, becoming the sixth CSU in the county with plans for even more in east and south San Diego. The 24-hour, 7-day a week, walk-in facility is based on a living room model and offers a kinder, gentler approach to intervention and stabilization for anyone suffering from a behavioral or mental health crisis.
People needing immediate behavioral health assistance should call 9-1-1. Help is also available by calling the County’s Access and Crisis Line at (888) 724-7240 or visiting www.Up2SD.org.
The Oceanside CSU is located inside the County Live Well Health Center
1701 Mission Avenue, Suite 130, Oceanside, CA 92058.
