Support following federal executive orders

January 30, 2017

The federal executive order restricting travel and immigration has understandably evoked reactions among many Berkeley students and staff. We are particularly concerned about the impact on our international, Muslim, and undocumented students. Whether these actions are directly affecting you or someone you care about, we want to make sure you find the support you need.

For faculty/staff: 

Be Well at Work - Employee Assistance is available to provide emotional support to faculty, staff, postdocs, and visiting scholars in this time of stress. Services are at no cost and confidential. Please feel free to contact Employee Assistance at (510) 643-7754 with questions or to make an appointment.   

For students:

Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) is available to provide confidential support to students during this time. Drop-in crisis counseling is available 10 am-5 pm Monday-Friday. No charge and no appointment is needed.
