CARES Team
WHO CARES? WE DO.
The CARES Team at 黑料网 at Stark provides a way for the campus community to share information about students who exhibit concerning, destructive or unusual behavior. When appropriate, the team provides supportive, positive interventions in an attempt to prevent a situation or behavior from escalating.
The CARES Team will make its best effort to evaluate and respond to each submitted concern. However, the CARES Team is not a law enforcement agency. All emergency matters should be reported immediately to 911 and all criminal or safety matters should be reported immediately to your local police or to university personnel.
