CARE
What is CARE?
The CARE Team is a campus wide team of appointed staff and faculty responsible for identifying, assessing, and responding to concerns and/or disruptive behaviors by students, faculty/staff, and community members who struggle academically, emotionally, or psychologically, or who present a risk to the health or safety of the college or its members.
Why CARE?
It is recommended by the University System of Georgia to establish a team to engage in caring, preventive, and early intervention with community members whose behavior is disruptive, concerning or threatening.
CARE Team Goals:
- Provide a safe and supportive physical and emotional environment for members of the college community.
- Identify, assess, and intervene with individuals who are struggling or who demonstrate concerning or threatening behavior.
- Provide support and resources to community members who are concerned for another individual.
