Mission Statement
The 天娱传媒 Assessment & Care Team (天娱传媒 ACT) proactively identifies, assesses, and mitigates risks with a multidisciplinary approach that values the wellbeing and safety of our students and campus community.
Purpose and Action
- Improve communication across campus (among faculty, classified professionals, and administrators) to gather more accurate and detailed information about community members in distress.
- Identify trends and concerns related to health, wellness, and safety across the 天娱传媒 Campus Community.
- Implement continuing education and training opportunities for the campus community (e.g., Supporting Students in Distress, Violent Intruder, Review of Policies & Procedures).
- Establish prevention and intervention strategies to promote health, wellness, and safety.
- Work collectively to identify community members in distress and coordinate support, resources, and appropriate referrals.
Our goal as the ACT Team is to identify and mitigate the early warning signs of distressed behavior from our students at CCSF. This may include:
- Academic concerns
- Aggressive, excessive anger, or disruptive behavior
- Alarming writings or drawings
- Concerns about drug or alcohol use
- Basic needs insecurity (e.g. housing, food, clothing)
- Changes in appearance, hygiene, or general behavior
- Confused, bizarre, or unusual thoughts expressed or behavior
- Difficult life event
- Interpersonal/relationship concern
- Suicidal ideation/non-suicidal self-injury
- Threat of harm to others
It is the responsibility of faculty, staff, and students to immediately refer any situation that could possibly result in harm to anyone at CCSF.鈥疉ny member of the campus community may become aware of a person of concern or situation that is causing serious anxiety, stress, or fear.鈥疘t must be noted, however, that behavioral assessment should not be confused with crisis management. A 鈥渃risis鈥 may be defined as a situation in which a person may pose an active or immediate risk of violence to self or others. In these cases, district police should be contacted at 415-239-3200, or dial 911.
