CAPS will continue to offer counseling services, including daytime and after-hours crisis services. For assistance, including after hours and weekend crisis services, please call 831–459–2628. Help is available 24 hours a day. The Campus Mobile Crisis Team will continue normal operations and can be reached at 831–502–9988.
