Description:

The Yuba-Sutter Mobile Crisis team responds to nonviolent mental or behavioral health calls. Also, the book “How to Play with Your Cat.” Finally, Sacramento-based museums collectively put a callout for more volunteers.

Yuba-Sutter Mobile Crisis Response

Nearly three years ago, the 988 Lifeline launched nationwide, a three-digit hotline that connects people to suicide and crisis counselors across the country- including more than a dozen call centers in California. This alternative to 911 is part of a larger shift of moving away from a one size fits all approach in responding to an emergency - especially in instances where law enforcement or other first responders may not be the best fit. During this time, counties across the state have been launching mobile crisis teams to respond to nonviolent mental or behavioral health calls. Drew Sutherland is the Clinical Director for Yuba-Sutter Mobile Crisis Response which is one of the newest to launch.

‘Best Of’ How to Play with Your Cat

Roughly one in three U.S. households own a cat. But these popular pets are often misunderstood and that can create health and behavior problems. A cat behavior consultant in Sacramento has spent her career researching felines and poured what she learned into a fun, comprehensive guide.Today on Insight, we’re revisiting our conversation with Dr. Mikel Maria Delgado, an animal behavior scientist, about her book Play with your Cat! which is described as a fun, comprehensive guide to the key to feline happiness.

Museum Callout for Volunteers

We are lucky to have many museums within our reach. And they are joining forces to ask for your help. The coalition Sacramento Area Museums is putting a callout for the need for volunteers. Delta Pick Mello is the Executive Director of Sacramento History Museum. Christi Skibbins is the Director of Team Development for SMUD Museum of Science & Technology. And Jessica Cushenberry is the Public Programs Manager with the California Museum. They join Insight to discuss their individual needs, as well as the benefits that volunteering provides beyond community service.
