Dear Student:<\/p>\n
These are stressful and challenging times, especially as you cope with quarantine and isolation. As students at the URochester, you have several resources and support systems available to you.<\/p>\n
The University Counseling Center (UCC)<\/strong> remains open for support for all full-time students and offers suggestions for managing fears and anxiety about the pandemic<\/a>. The UCC 24\/7 on-call service (585) 275-3113 is also available for mental health emergencies experienced by students.<\/p>\n The CARE Network<\/a> \u00a0allows members of the University community to express their concern about a student\u2014or seek help for themselves\u2014through its online referral form<\/a>. Upon receiving and reviewing a CARE referral, staff reach out to the student to provide support and resources. In addition, the Interfaith Chapel<\/a> remains available to offer support to students during this difficult time. Students are welcome to email Reverend Denise Yarbrough<\/a> if they are struggling. Many of the faith communities of the chapel<\/a> are offering virtual worship services. Simply contact the leader of the faith community you are interested in for details on their virtual services.<\/p>\n For students who need additional funding to cover qualifying needs, clothing, food, housing, the Basic Needs Hub<\/a> is an excellent resource to get you through the critical period. The Food Pantry<\/a> has expanded its availability to all students and postdoctoral appointees who face food insecurity, face a change in employment status, financial hardship or who are in quarantine and isolation. It is need-blind and does not require any income or financial threshold.<\/p>\n Remember, we are in this together and you are not alone. Whether you live on campus or off-campus, each school has a Quarantine\/Isolation Support Coordinator listed below<\/strong> who can further assist you in obtaining the necessary services to support you in getting through these challenging times.<\/p>\n We wish you a very successful academic term and year. Stay safe and healthy, and please do not forget to follow the University\u2019s health and safety guidelines.<\/p>\n Molly Morrison<\/strong> <\/em> Dear Student: These are stressful and challenging times, especially as you cope with quarantine and isolation.
