Saint John’s regrets that we will no longer be accepting any new clients into our Crisis Respite Program after June 20, 2026.

This program is being discontinued due to a Sacramento County funding decision related to the implementation of the Behavioral Health Services Act enacted by California voters.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please call Sacramento County’s 24/7 Access Team at (916) 875-1055 or toll-free at (888) 881-4881
