CAPS’ mission is to promote the emotional and psychological well-being of students and the UCSB community. We approach our work both comprehensively and collectively. The greatest proportion of our work is initial assessment, crisis intervention, and individual/group therapy. However, we also work with worried parents, professors, friends who notice signs of distress, graduate advisors, TAs, and anyone who reaches out to us for help. We work with veterans, students of color, graduate students, first generation, foster youth, LGBQTI students, student parents, athletes, re-entry students, international students – we work with the entire UCSB community! We have a diverse staff, and hope to continue to increase the diversity of our staff – culturally/ethnically as well as our ability to offer services in a diversity of languages. Voting ‘yes’ for CAPS will ensure our ability to continue to meet the increasing demand and provide quality services to UCSB students.
