Distressed Students Response ProtocolUCSB is committed to providing a quality learning environment. Faculty, TAs and staff will often be the first to encounter a student who is in distress. Encouraging and helping the student to seek assistance with the appropriate campus and community resources are key. UCSB has multiple professionals poised to respond to distressed students. These staff members include social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists and a coordinator of student mental health services. The coordinator of student mental health services is a readily accessible single point of contact for staff, faculty and students who are concerned about a distressed student and do not know which office to contact. The coordinator will consult about a student, provide referrals to campus departments, develop action plans, and follow up with students, staff and faculty as appropriate. REFERRAL IDENTIFIERS:Student distress may manifest in behavior or in the reaction the behavior elicits in others. If you notice any of the following behaviors, the Distressed Student Protocol will assist you in responding to the student and providing appropriate referrals.
