Upon receipt of a BIT referral, the BIT Team will review the information provided and strategize the best way to follow up. Individuals who make a referral may be contacted by a representative of the BIT Team for more information or clarification. Depending on the circumstances, that individual may not receive specific information about how the BIT Team plans on responding to their referral.
Examples of responses may include the following:
- The BIT Team may determine that there is no need for further action but will monitor the situation and concerns.
- A BIT Team representative will circle back around to the referral source and provide suggestions and ways to respond to the concerning behavior.
- A BIT Team representative may reach out to the individual of concern directly to provide support and resources.
If the situation requires immediate action, such as situations where the individual is an immediate threat of harming themself or others, the BIT Team may coordinate with the CSUDH Police Department to assist in the response.
