Outreach prevention allows for Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) staff to connect, educate and intervene with the larger UCF campus to strengthen our “community of caring.”

This includes facilitating workshops (e.g., stress management, introduction to mental health services, how to help someone in distress), forming liaison relationships with units and departments focused on supporting student mental health and well-being, consulting with faculty, staff, parents and/or concerned students about a student in distress, and/or participating in campus events related to mental health and well-being. Below are outreach workshops, events, tools and programs that CAPS offers that extends UCF’s mental health support to our students.

Please note: Due to an increase in direct clinical services, we may not be able to fulfill all requests for outreach during the end of the semester (usually the last month). Please know that we will make recommendations for other campus offices that may be able to assist. We do not offer outreach services on the weekends or past 6pm during the week unless we are responding to a crisis situation. In addition, In order to give our staff enough time to schedule and prepare the presentation, 3 weeks’ notice is required.
