Coordinated Response

In some complex or multifaceted situations, a coordinated response that involves community members across campus may be required. This may include critical incidents that occur on-campus, concerns that a student may be at-risk of harming themselves or others, or other complex student situations that may involve the intersection of multiple departments across campus.  

The Office of Student Support & Case Management facilitates these responses by bringing together a team of those who are able to provide the needed support to the student and greater 深夜福利站 community.
