Following up on a story we first covered on the radio last month, during the hectic final days of the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan.

Host Matt Pitman and KCBS reporter Kathy Novak recently spent a day with the San Francisco Fire Department's Critical Response Team.  

In part of SF, its the CRT - not the cops - who may arrive first to a 9-1-1 call where someone may be experiencing a mental health or drug abuse crisis.  Can this care and compassion based program help further de-stigmatize issues surrounding mental health?
