Here to Help

Description

Here to Help (H2H) is an initiative developed by the Madison Teaching Fellows-Alcohol and Academic Culture in conjunction with the Office of Substance Abuse Prevention and the Counseling and Student Development Center. H2H will orient faculty to the spectrum of campus resources available to students in distress or crisis, including those students experiencing problems related to alcohol use and abuse. Faculty completing the two-hour session will identify themselves to students with the new H2H sticker, to be placed on their office doors, and will serve as points of access for students in need of referral.

Learning Outcomes

• Faculty will learn to identify signs of distress in students and steps they can take to assist students
• Faculty will learn to identify disruptive classroom behavior and develop an intervention plan to reduce its occurrence
• Faculty will learn to identify signs of a dangerous student and actions they can take to help to mitigate risk
