DCTC’s Campus Assessment, Referral, and Education (CARE) Team exists to promote, maintain, and enhance a safe and healthy learning and working community in support of DCTC’s mission.
DCTC’s CARE Team provides a means by which students, staff, and faculty can identify, report, and respond to situations affecting the success, safety, and overall well-being of the campus community.
Are you concerned about a student's well-being and feel that the student needs support and resources? Tell us more by submitting a CARE Referral form.
In situations of immediate safety threat, call 911. Referrals are reviewed daily (Monday through Friday) by members of the CARE Team. A CARE member will follow up with the person making the referral. As a team, CARE will discuss, assess, and determine the appropriate intervention strategies and implement such strategies as quickly as possible. CARE will keep all interested and responsible parties updated on the status and outcomes of the case.
