FACULTY/STAFF ROLE
As Faculty/Staff, you have an important role in students鈥� efforts to seek help. First, you are often in a direct position to observe students and be aware of their behavior. Second, students frequently turn to informal 鈥渉elp providers鈥� like yourself to obtain advice and support. Although you are not expected to provide mental health services, it is helpful for you to understand the critical role you can play in:
- Prevention of student problems
- Being familiar with the signs that indicate a student is in need of help
- Responding to student problems
- Understanding the steps in making appropriate referrals
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Counseling & Psychological Services for additional assistance.
The Red Folder
天涯海角社区 is committed to supporting the physical, emotional, and psychological well-being of its students. The Red Folder is a quick-reference guide for faculty and staff to assist in recognizing, responding to, and referring students who may be experiencing distress. It provides practical guidance for appropriate intervention and outlines key mental health and emergency resources available both on and off campus. STAC鈥檚 Red Folder is adapted from an evidence-informed initiative developed by the University of California system.
