body
Financial Impact:
The cost of the PERSA portable safety GPS tracking device and live monitoring services are funded by Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) funds in budget unit 40131, general ledger account 53230.
Background Information:
In June 2025, Vestige Group, LLC changed their name to Transit Safety, LLC formerly known as the Vestige Group, LLC, a Transit Technologies, LLC company.
Transit Safety, LLC provides the Agency with personal safety devices and live monitoring services for our Mobile Crisis Unit (MCU) staff in the field, as well as our front desk staff. The personal safety devices are wearable GPS devices and are monitored 24/7, so whenever the MCU is responding to a call, their real-time location and location history is recorded. The device can also function as a “panic button” that the MCU, or front desk staff, can use in an emergency. The panic button can make “yellow alerts” and “red alerts.” In the event of a yellow alert, an internal alert message is sent to a pre-programmed contact list. In the event of a red alert, first responders are called for immediate emergency response. All alerts, location data, and reporting are visible in a cloud-based Vestige DMP portal.
