Updated

The Ad Hoc Committee on Unarmed Crisis Prevention, Intervention, and Community Services of the Los Angeles City Council oversees the City's unarmed and co-response crisis programs, including SMART, therapeutic vans, the Unarmed Model of Crisis Response, CIRCLE and street medicine teams, and sends recommendations to the full Council (Council resolution, CF 26-2000). The Council re-authorized it on Aug. 11, 2026, and the Council President's assignment letter set its members from Aug. 31.

Latest as of October 10, 2026

The Los Angeles City Council's Ad Hoc Committee on Unarmed Crisis Prevention, Intervention, and Community Services holds a special meeting Oct. 14, 2026 on one item, the City Administrative Officer's March 10, 2026 status report on the Unarmed Model of Crisis Response, which counts 19,827 calls handled by unarmed teams through Feb. 17, 2026 and describes an expansion into the Rampart, North Hollywood and Topanga LAPD areas (agenda).

Also on Aug. 28 the committee approved as amended a motion asking the Police Department for a report on nuisance complaints and calls for service at publicly funded homelessness service centers; on Sept. 15 the Public Safety Committee concurred and added an amendment from Council District 13 (agenda), and the file is also pending in the Homelessness and Health Committee.
