If you are experiencing a medical emergency, feel physically unsafe, or know someone who is threatening to harm his/herself or others, please contact your campus police or 911 (following your campus’s emergency procedures).
Please note that some campus police and Chicago police have received training in de-escalating mental health crises. These officers are called CIT (Crisis Intervention Team) officers, and you can consider requesting them when you call 911 or your campus police.
