Deflection & Diversion
The Quick Response Team (QRT) at FAN is a proactive outreach program designed to provide compassionate and immediate support to individuals and families affected by substance use crises.
Our QRT operates under the deflection and diversion levels, aiming to engage those who have had recent interactions with first responders, such as EMS, fire, or law enforcement, due to substance use.
Deflection and Diversion
FAN connects individuals with substance use or co-occurring disorders to treatment services as an alternative to incarceration, working in coordination with law enforcement, the prosecutor’s office, the court system, and case managers.
This approach helps reduce strain on the legal system, lowers jail populations, and contributes to more stable long-term results.
Our team builds strong, professional relationships with individuals, helping each person develop a structured recovery plan tailored to their goals. We offer practical assistance, connect participants to available services, and focus on building everyday skills to reduce obstacles and support long-term stability.
