Notice on Counseling Assessments<\/em> CAPS policy is to complete mental health\/substance use assessments for the sole purpose of developing a treatment plan with students seeking counseling services. Any evalsuation for purposes other than treatment planning, such as academic or residential accommodations, emotional support or service animals, or for outside agencies (i.e. police academy, FBI, Peace Corp, probation, employment, court etc.) are referred to a third party provider. This policy is in place to maintain the functional independence and neutrality of the Center, which is critical for utilization of services. Any compromise could create a perception of distrust, and prevent students from seeking services.<\/p>\n
