Case Management
Case management can help find the best approach to support students in the immediate situation and provide referrals for ongoing care. Assistance includes outreach, advocacy, intervention, support, and referrals to relevant campus and community resources.
What is Case Management?
Through individualized consultation, case management provides assessment, intervention, and coordination of services to support students navigating challenging or unexpected issues that impact their well-being and academic success. In difficult situations such as medical, mental health, behavioral, personal or family crisis, illness or injury, a student may find it difficult to navigate the resources and services available. We can provide support to these students in order to assist them in removing barriers to success and in increasing their holistic well-being. We do not solve a student’s problems for them, but help to identify issues and appropriate resources and works collaboratively with the student to develop an action plan.
Student case management is not counseling or therapy; rather, case managers have the opportunity to develop close helping relationships with students while coaching students toward appropriate self-care and self-advocacy.
