Campus Assessment Response Evaluation Team

First Inside Panel

Supporting the whole student one concern at a time.

The CARE Team is designed to support students by connecting them with resources and serving as an on-campus source of support. The CARE Team often collaborates with other offices on campus and in the community.  Information may be provided to appropriate faculty and staff members based on a need to know and/or for health and safety reasons. The CARE Team supports the physical, mental and emotional wellbeing of students and works to respect their privacy.

What can I expect?

ARE Team uses a non-clinical case management model to support students in need. Once a report is received, the assigned case manager will reach out to the student via email, text and phone to schedule an appointment. The case manager will evaluate the concerns and determine appropriate support and intervention. Together, they will create a plan of support with the student.

Last Outside Panel

Fostering a Community of Care

Wichita State cares about our students鈥� success, not only academically, but emotionally and physically as well. Because of our commitment, we provide services across campus that support and respond to our students鈥� unique needs.

The 黑洞社区 CARE Team receives referrals and supports students experiencing personal, emotional, and/or medical concerns. The CARE Team serves as a centralized reporting source for any individual (students, faculty, staff, etc.) who is concerned about an individual鈥檚 wellbeing.

Help is just a visit, a phone call or an email away.  黑洞社区 cares!
