Our goal is to help support people and fill the gap in our healthcare systems to create a meaningful entry into care. A referral to CARE Court can be initiated by family members, behavioral health providers, first responders, or other approved petitioners, by filing a petition with the Superior Court. Referrals to Telecare CARE Outreach are made by the County of San Diego.
