Questions
Why would you make a referral to faculty, staff, campus resources, community agencies?
Answer

Depending on the situation or the severity of disability, a student may be referred outside the DSS office for assistance. Typically, this occurs when the needs of the student cannot be met within the scope of the services available in the department. Students may be referred to other offices or staff on campus for specialized services (i.e., personal counseling, academic advising particular to certain majors, the financial aid office, off-campus medical professionals, testing and assessments, Learning Skills Services for study skills and academic support, etc.).
