The CARE Team consists of a cross section of trained professionals, including Student Services, Counseling & Accessibility Services, Student Conduct and Campus Security. Expertise and support from additional members of the campus community may be sought as appropriate on a case by case basis.
The CARE Team provides a single point for reporting a variety of concerns. The team reviews and assesses concerns and makes recommendations for support and safety. The team also educates about campus and community resources and provides necessary monitoring of concerns to help students reach their educational goals.
Anyone who feels that a student is in need of help or assistance can make a referral to the CARE team.
