"Just in Time" Web-based Overview CCP Training

The web-based "Just in Time" training provides a quick overview of the Crisis Counseling Assistance and Training Program (CCP) and the skills needed to provide behavioral health services after a disaster. It is designed to provide crisis counselors, supervisors, and team leaders with a basic understanding of the CCP model and services. This training is used when in-person Core Content Training is not yet available and staff must provide CCP services as quickly as possible.

Staff who complete the "Just in Time" training are still required to complete the full Core Content Training once it becomes available. A federal project officer must approve the CCP grantee’s request to use the training before it is offered.
