Counseling Center: Emergency Information

In the event of a medical or safety emergency, please call 911.

The Counseling Center provides direct crisis intervention services that may include on-going counseling, referral to community resources or consultation for students, faculty or staff members facing a crisis situation.

During the Day
If a mental health emergency occurs between 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, contact the Counseling Center office at 501-4275. You will be seen by a psychologist/counselor as soon as possible.  Staff and faculty may refer students to the center by calling 501-4275, or may call for consultation related to a student they are concerned about.

Evenings and Weekends
For students living in on-campus residence halls, contact one of the residence hall directors or campus security at 501-4010. They will contact the counselor on-call who will be able to work with residence life and security to assist you.

Students living away from campus should contact their local hospital or community mental health crisis line. Here are some KC area community mental health crisis services.
