CU Boulder Resources
There are many resources, most of which are free of charge, available to CU students, faculty, and staff to help with stressful or difficult situations. These offices can provide additional support for addressing concerns, exploring options for reporting, and gaining skills for helping others.
Campus resources that are not confidential are required to comply with the mandatory obligation to report.
These confidential services do not have an obligation to disclose any information provided to them without the express permission of the client. If files are maintained, they are completely separate from academic and employment records and cannot be accessed by campus or community systems without the client's signed authorization. There are exceptions to confidentiality that should be discussed with a counselor or provider.
