Meet the Teams
Tell Somebody reports serve as a central conduit through which concerns are received, reviewed, and triaged to the appropriate teams across Texas A&M. Various teams work collaboratively to ensure students are connected to the right support at the right time. In partnership with case managers and case management teams across the university, we engage in a collaborative process between staff members and students to identify concerns, assess obstacles, set goals, and monitor needs and services. Through this coordinated approach, concerns are addressed holistically, compassionately, and with continuity of care.
