行为干预小组

JCC's 行为干预小组

The JCC 行为干预小组 (BIT) is led by the vice president of Student Affairs, and consists of JCC 教师, 工作人员, and administrators in the areas of counseling, 校园安全/第九条, 居住生活, 学生的行为, 和健康/健康. Members of the BIT are experienced in managing health, 行为, and safety aspects of the college experience and therefore are able to spot patterns and arrange early intervention services as they evaluate 行为s. The team meets to discuss mental health concerns, 行为问题, and other incidents occurring on campus. The BIT will then plan and implement intervention strategies to address the reported 行为s/concerns and support the student through a variety of means, including referrals to resources as needed.  

The team is a resource for JCC 教师 and 工作人员 to report students of concern. Its intent is to provide early support and intervention to students, but not to stigmatize them or enable profiling. 除了, it is meant to assist students to receive needed accommodations and referrals, assist with academic stressors, and increase and enhance opportunities for student success.

In cases where the Student Code of Conduct is not violated, but the 行为 may evoke alarm or concern among involved persons, the 行为干预小组 is the best reporting mechanism. The team creates an approach that integrates information among offices and takes advantage of the strengths and valuable services that various departments provide.
