Faculty, staff, students, and others who are concerned about the safety or behavior of a student are encouraged to talk to the student directly, and/or refer the student to the Care Team for assistance.
Some of the circumstances one may consider contacting the Care Team about a student of concern are:
- academic or personal distress
- emergency/crisis situations
- concerning or unsafe behavior
- post-hospitalization support
- financial hardship
- death or serious illness of a family member
- personal health and safety needs
- other extenuating circumstances
For additional guidance on recognizing and helping students of concern please refer to this resource from Harvard University Health Services: Assisting Students in Distress
