Online: csudh.edu/cape

Notifying the CARE team
If you have concerns and are wondering, "Whom should I tell about this?" the CARE Team is available to consult and help plan interventions when necessary. We have a multidisciplinary team to help analyze and direct resources as necessary. However, if you feel there is a chance for imminent harm, contact the University Police Department at 9-1-1.
The following behaviors, especially when more than one are present, may be signs that a student is in distress:
- Significant change in appearance, mood, and/or social functioning
- Behavior that creates a disruptive or hostile environment
- Actions that potentially endanger the safety of any member of the CSUDH community
- Behavior that impacts one's ability to function appropriately and successfully on campus
- A sense that someone is struggling or that something is wrong
