The Alternative Mobile Services Association developed from months of talks with CAHOOTS and other cities and organizations operating mobile services around the country and in Canada. The Mental Health Association of Portland soft-launched the Association in 2021 and offered AMSA’s first national virtual conference in early 2022. The organization is a 501 C 3 peer-led nonprofit organization with an education and advocacy agenda since 2003.
The AMSA 2022 Agenda is Membership Drive. AMSA will bring together organizations interested in public safety, such as municipal governments, law enforcement agencies, healthcare providers, and foundations in the US during the association’s year FY 2022/2023 for operating support to provide public and membership services.
