CASE MANAGEMENT

The case manager coordinates student services and provides support in the process of being connected to the appropriate resources at Scripps College, the Claremont Colleges consortium, and the regional community. In addition to supporting students, case management is also available to consult with faculty, staff, parents, and others any time they are worried about a student’s behavior or mental health.

Case Management will provide a referral if there is a need for further resources to reduce barriers and connect them to supportive resources related to: mental health, food insecurity, textbook scholarship awards, follow up services, MLOA return assessment and support, personal care, and student wellness check ins.

CRISIS AND SUPPORT RESOURCES

It is important to stay connected and rely on each other during times of uncertainty or crisis. Odds are that there are others who share similar concerns.
