This program is run by Office of the Dean of Students.

The mission of the University of San Francisco Care Referral Program is to support cura personalis, care for the whole person. As a staff or faculty member, you may encounter students who need your assistance for academic reasons; physical and mental health reasons; and/or other personal reasons. You may be the first contact and play an important role at USF in providing resources to support our students.

Care Referrals allow staff and faculty to inform the Office of the Dean of Students about students in need of support or assistance. These referrals are used to initiate collaborative action plans to assist the referred student.
