 The Evanston C.A.R.E. Program has launched
The Crisis Alternative Response Evanston (C.A.R.E.) initiative is a City project aimed at providing a non-police response to certain low-risk service calls. By rethinking public safety, we hope to create a stronger, more connected community. Care team professionals handle a wide range of community concerns, offering a compassionate and effective alternative to traditional responses. Learn more.
