Attend a screening appointment

Attending a screening appointment is the first step to get connected with personalized services at CAPS. This brief one-on-one appointment is designed to assess your needs and identify mental health services that may work best for you. Screening appointments typically last 20 minutes and are available virtually or in person during drop-in hours.

I'm in crisis

Get help if you or someone you know is in crisis.

CAPS stands with our students, staff, and faculty in condemning all forms of oppression and violence on our campus and beyond.

We join with communities across the nation and world as we witnessed the police acts that resulted in the murder of Tyre Nichols. We stand with all who mourn his loss. CAPS recognizes that for many, especially people in the Black community, the trauma of witnessing Tyre Nichols’ death brings forth memories of many other instances of racial trauma, violence, discrimination, stereotypes, and oppression. Emotions such as outrage, sadness, helplessness, fatigue, and numbness may arise as a result of this trauma. CAPS is available to support our Black-identified student community and all who are impacted, through resources and/or access to our services.
