Students can access free 24/7 assistance through text with the Crisis Text Line. This hotline is staffed with trained counselors who receive texts and immediately begin a dialogue with the student who is texting. If any action needs to be taken for intervention, the Crisis Text Line staff will call the appropriate first responders if necessary or if a referral is needed, they will do that as well. These counselors are available to talk through issues that might be distressing to our students under the private communication style of texting.
