For Students in Crisis

Daytime Crisis Walk-ins

If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis during normal business hours, you may walk into CAPS (1500 WSC). Walk-in crisis appointments are available from 8:00 am to 4:15 pm (based on Counselor availability). Outside these hours, crises are managed through the after-hours crisis line (call 801-422-3035 (opens in a new tab) and follow the recorded instructions).

After-Hour Crisis Services

CAPS has partnered with ProtoCall, a national leader in providing after-hours crisis services. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis after 4:15 pm and before 8:00 am, call CAPS at 801-422-3035 (opens in a new tab) and follow the recorded instructions to be connected with a crisis specialist.
