The purpose of Care Team is to identify and respond to concerning behavior and provide support to students who may have academic and/or personal challenges which could have an impact on their college experience.
Cedar Crest College’s Care Team brings together members from departments across campus to promote the safety and wellbeing of our campus community. This may include behavior regarding a peer or conversations between groups or individuals that may potentially be unhealthy. The Care Team requests your input so we may be proactive in fostering safety, healthy wellbeing, and academic achievement for our community. If you are concerned about a student or a friend please complete our online Care Team Report.
When a referral is made, a member of the Care Team will reach out to the student in a timely manner to offer support and assistance. The Care Team meets on a regular basis to discuss referrals, outreach results, and discuss the best approach to stay connected and continue to support students to be successful.
