CAPS is closed for the summer beginning 12PM on Friday, 5/22. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency after our closure, please review our crisis resources. If you are interested in ongoing therapy over the summer, consider working with our telehealth partners, TimelyCare. If you are interested in connecting with CAPS in Fall 2026, please check this webpage in mid-August, as we post updates here.
CAPS wishes you a restorative summer and looks forward to supporting you in the 2026 - 2027 academic school year!
