科罗拉多州丹佛县丹佛市丹佛市议会10月19日批准273万美元拨款：STAR危机响应项目全市延续至2027年7月
丹佛市议会10月19日批准了一项2734639美元的协议，接受关爱丹佛基金会的“关爱优先于监禁”拨款，以在2026至2027财年继续在全市范围推行STAR项目，即支援团队辅助响应项目。根据市议会会议记录，这笔拨款的支持期限至2027年7月31日，议会以11比0的投票结果整批通过，一名议员缺席。
STAR项目派出由专业人员组成的团队，响应与心理健康、物质使用和无家可归相关的低风险求助，避免一律由警察出警。另有一份与丹佛健康与医院管理局签订的2837767.92美元合同，涵盖STAR项目的急救医疗技术人员、护理人员和车辆，期限至2027年12月31日，市议会10月19日已下令公布该合同法案，但尚未给予最终批准。
两项安排合计，STAR项目在未来一年多的运行将获得稳定的资金与人员保障，市政府希望借此继续以更适合的方式处理社区危机求助。

Denver City Council Approves $2.73 Million Grant on Oct. 19, Extending STAR Crisis Response Program Citywide Through July 2027
The Denver City Council on Oct. 19 approved a $2,734,639 agreement accepting the Caring for Denver Foundation's Care Over Incarceration grant to continue the STAR program, the Support Team Assisted Response program, citywide through fiscal 2026-27. According to the council record, the grant support period runs through July 31, 2027, and the council passed it en bloc by an 11-0 vote with one member absent.
The STAR program dispatches teams of professionals to low-risk calls involving mental health, substance use and homelessness, rather than sending police by default. A separate $2,837,767.92 contract with Denver Health and Hospital Authority covers STAR's EMTs, paramedics and vans through Dec. 31, 2027; the council ordered the bill published on Oct. 19 but has not yet given final approval.
Together, the two arrangements give STAR stable funding and staffing for more than a year ahead, as the city hopes to keep handling community crisis calls in a more appropriate way.
