Care Team
The Care Team at UW-Stevens Point gathers information about students facing crises, personal struggles, life traumas and other barriers the might impede their personal and academic success. Utilizing a case management model, the team may meet with the impacted student, consult with faculty and staff, connect students to resources, and advocate for students across campus. For more information about the types of concerns managed by our office, please see our annual reports.
