CARE TEAM

CARE TEAM

In line with emerging best practices across the nation, Temple made a decision in the summer of 2007 to create a special team of individuals who discuss students of concern. The CARE (Crisis Assessment Response and Education) Team meets weekly to discuss how best to intervene when serious safety concerns are present. The group is chaired by the Dean of Students and is also comprised of individuals who represent the following offices: University Counsel, Campus Safety Services, Tuttleman Counseling Services, Academic Affairs, University Disciplinary Committee, University Housing, Student Health Services, and Disability Resources and Services. The group works diligently to find solutions to potentially dangerous situations by getting students the help and services they need and/or by confronting inappropriate or threatening behavior.
