About
Our Process and Philosophy
The Center for Care and Resilience (CCR) staff members identify and draw on individual strengths to move through a process of recovery and building resilience. The relationship between a student and a care coordinator is primary and essential, and care coordinators empower students to self-advocate and access resources on campus and in the community.
Interventions proposed by the care coordinator are based on student self-determination and autonomy. The student is an expert in their own life. Students who have significant mental health diagnoses are supported and offered an opportunity to grow, learn, and change.
For more information on this approach, see The History of Case Management in Higher Education, a publication of the Higher Education Case Managers Association.
