Rocky Mountain Crisis Partners

What Rocky Mountain Crisis Partners does

Rocky Mountain Crisis Partners (RMCP) is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2010 that designs, operates, and consults on crisis intervention and suicide prevention programs. From 2010 to 2024, RMCP served as the front door to Colorado's comprehensive statewide crisis system, operating a 24/7 phone, text, and chat crisis contact center staffed at peak by more than 400 FTEs and logging 3.4 million crisis contacts, 750,000 peer support calls, and 678,000 follow-up calls since 2014. Its core products and underlying technology consist of a multi-channel crisis contact center infrastructure (phone/text/chat with on-site and remote staff), the nationally best-practice-recognized Hospital Follow-Up Program serving 75 Colorado hospitals, and a peer support network instrumental in creating Colorado's Peer Support Credential. Following the 2024 transition of the statewide contact center contract, RMCP restructured around three new lines: CaringConnect (trauma-informed post-discharge follow-up), ConsultConnect (fee-for-service consulting across clinical crisis intervention, peer support, training, data strategy, and sustainability), and Workplace Peer Partners (peer support, supervision, response teams, and program development for employer customers). Its business model combines donations and philanthropic funding, government contracts (historically the dominant revenue source), and emerging fee-for-service consulting, distributed via direct enterprise partnerships with healthcare systems, hospitals, behavioral health organizations, employers, and government agencies primarily in Colorado with a stated 2025 push to serve organizations nationwide.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Vibrant Emotional Health: Administers the national 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline backbone and runs the NYC-based NYC Well crisis contact center. Directly comparable as a crisis contact center operator expanding into peer support, follow-up care, and national consulting — the same trajectory RMCP is pursuing post-2024.
• Crisis Text Line: Operates a national 24/7 text-based crisis intervention service staffed by trained volunteers. Comparable in mission, multi-channel crisis delivery (text/chat), and volunteer-supported staffing model, and overlaps with RMCP's peer support and caring contacts offerings.
• Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services: Operates the LA County suicide prevention and crisis line and runs extensive follow-up and school-based mental health programs. Closely matches RMCP's crisis line + postvention follow-up + community training portfolio at similar nonprofit scale.
• Center for Suicide Prevention (Calgary): Canadian nonprofit focused on suicide prevention training, research, and community programs. Comparable as a mission-aligned nonprofit offering training, caring contacts, and resource navigation that competes with RMCP's CaringConnect and Community Trainings.
• Samaritans (Boston): Operates a regional 24/7 crisis hotline serving Massachusetts with trained volunteers and follow-up services. Directly comparable as a nonprofit crisis line + caring contacts operator that RMCP would compete with or partner alongside in the Northeast.

Broad incumbents

• American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP): National nonprofit leading large-scale suicide prevention advocacy, research funding, and awareness. Operates broader than RMCP but overlaps on postvention support, community training, and workplace programs targeting the same at-risk populations.
• Mental Health America: National community-based nonprofit addressing the full spectrum of mental health conditions through screening, advocacy, and peer support. Comparable in nonprofit scale, peer-centered programming, and workplace/school mental health offerings.
• Connections Health Solutions: Operates large-scale behavioral health crisis facilities and 23-hour crisis stabilization services across multiple states. Broader incumbent in crisis care delivery that RMCP's hospital and managed care partners may align with instead of, or alongside, RMCP's follow-up programs.

Emerging players

• The Jason Foundation: Focused on youth suicide prevention through training curricula and parent/educator programs. Comparable in workplace and community training offerings and in targeting transition-period vulnerabilities that overlap with CaringConnect.

Regional players

• Boulder Community Health / Mental Health Partners: Colorado-based behavioral health provider offering crisis services, outpatient care, and peer support. Directly comparable in geography and overlapping program scope with RMCP's Colorado operations.
