Team Membership Description

The Behavioral Intervention Team consists of college personnel with expertise in human resources/employee assistance, law enforcement/threat assessment/tactical applications, college operations, mental health knowledge, and student affairs. Membership is based on the position and not the individual. The members have regular contact with campus community members in some manner, which will aid in the assessment of persons of concern, and/or the authority to receive a recommendation and take the appropriate action. A collaborative process to assess threats and concerns will be used. Depending on the situation, personnel with areas of specialization or responsibility may be called upon to assist the TEAM. The TEAM may also consult other individuals, as needed, such as a faculty member who has a concern about a student, a professional counselor to share expertise, and/or a manager who has information concerning an employee. The Chair will keep the CPTC Cabinet advised of situations and specifically will communicate with the college president, as needed.
