The standard Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training offered to most police officers focuses primarily on response techniques for adults.

While there are some general similarities between adults and youth, there are important and unique distinctions that require specialized knowledge and training.

CIT-Youth (CIT-Y) trains police officers on response techniques that are appropriate for youth with behavioral health needs.
