NAMI Partnership Formed for Consolidated Crisis Response Center Because of the need for an effective means of diverting many mentally ill offenders into more appropriate and effective alternatives, the partnership between Benton Franklin Community Action Committee, the bi-county Human Services Department, and NAMI Tri-Cities was formed. On March 24, 2008 the Boards of Commissioners of Benton and Franklin Counties passed a Joint Resolution, appointing the Benton Franklin Community Action Committee to be the lead agency for this new center. CAC will work in conjunction with local philanthropist, Carl Cadwell to evaluate the establishment of this facility by means of private funds. This project will be assessed in the context of a community services campus, with the co-location of related social services and programs. Breaking the cycle of repeat offenders, which often ends with costly long-term incarceration, will increase public safety and create the opportunity for long-term cost savings to the public.
