Adult & Child Health is proud to recognize Alannah Rosenbalm, LCSW, Mobile Crisis Team Leader, for her recent award.

Alannah was presented with the CIT Indiana Behavioral Health Professional of the Year Award at the NAMI Indiana Mental Health & Criminal Justice Summit on March 10. This award recognizes a behavioral health professional who has made a substantial impact on preparing first responders to understand mental illness and crisis response, and in improving coordination between first responders and mental health providers during crisis response situations.

Her award nomination from the Johnson County CIT team noted that, “Alannah steps up in every way and is always willing to help our team, no matter the time of day or night. She works at coming up with innovative ways and resources we can use to help our clients who are in crisis. She is always willing to staff a case with us and give us ideas of where we might be able to seek assistance. Alannah also participates in presenting to our CIT courses each quarter to express her passion and knowledge for the mental health needs for our community. Alannah is very deserving of this award as she does have the biggest heart for the clients we work with.”
