This guide helps identify if the severity of a student’s distress is categorized as a CRISIS or an URGENT CONCERN, and enables you to guide them to the most appropriate resources and supports. When a student is in crisis, it is important to immediately link them to resources that can help in the moment. Your role is to respond with assistance or recommendations on where they can find support, and not to solve the student’s issue(s) on your own.
