What is the Riverwalk Crisis Receiving Center?
The Riverwalk Crisis Center in Missoula is a safe, welcoming, place for adults
18 and older, who need a place to go when they are experiencing a behavioral or mental health crisis. It's open all day, every day of the year, so there's always someone there to help.
About the Center
At Riverwalk, up to 16 people can be looked after at once by a team of dedicated and trained healthcare workers. These professionals include nurses, mental health professionals, and more. They make sure everyone gets the care they need for up to 24 hours. They also help connect people to other resources in the community that can help them more.
The center has a welcoming space for family members to visit and places for cultural and spiritual activities. This helps everyone feel better and costs less than going to a hospital emergency room when not really needed.
