The numbers you want
before 2 a.m.

The hardest time to look up a campus phone number is the moment you need it. Spend ten minutes now listing the crisis supports at your college: what each one is for, the number, the hours, the cost and whether it is saved in your phone. The page checks you have the four that matter most.

What you get

Enrichment · WellbeingFree

What you finish with
A crisis-support list for one campus: a card per resource with its kind, number, where it is, when you would use it, hours, cost, whether it is in your phone and when you last checked. Shows which of the four key supports are listed, how many are open 24 hours and how many are saved; flags unknown hours or cost, numbers not saved and checks over six months old.
Who it is for
College students, students about to start college, and parents helping them get ready; residence life staff can use it as a model in a floor meeting.
Format
Browser list with a saved card per resource. Prints a wallet-sized list, every card in a table or a blank form; downloads a spreadsheet (.csv); exports and imports a file.

Campus names differ. Look up your college’s own counseling center, campus safety and dean of students pages, and put the numbers in your list.

Most counseling centers have an after-hours option

Many college counseling centers route calls to an on-call counselor or a phone service when the office is closed. Find out what yours does; the answer is usually on the counseling center’s website or voicemail.

Calling for a friend

If you are worried about a friend, you can call 988 or campus safety yourself, or report your concern to the dean of students or the care team. Many colleges have a form for this. Stay with the friend if they might not be safe and you can do so safely.

Confidential and private are different

Counselors and health center clinicians are usually confidential. Many other staff, including RAs, may be required to share what you tell them about harassment or assault with the Title IX office. Ask before you share, if that matters to you.
