Key Functions of Terriers CARE

• Discuss/assess situations brought to its attention by any campus community member seeking guidance on disruptive and/or concerning behaviors that might lead to aggression or self-harm.
• Centralize the process of collecting and assessing “red flags” raised by employee behavior and documented by different sources within the University.
• Develop a coordinated plan to help employees in crisis, mitigate risk, facilitate early intervention, and protect and maintain campus safety.
• Coordinate follow-up with the employee to ensure that recommended services, support, and resources are deployed effectively.
