Thank you for being a caring member of the Brown community.
You’re in the right place if you’ve noticed that a student could use support and you are making time in your day to figure out how to best support them.
Knowing how to respond in a helpful manner when someone around you is struggling can be anxiety provoking; our hope is that the resources included here will empower you to respond in a compassionate, respectful and skilled manner to students in distress.
