A Crisis Toolkit: Collaboration in Navigating International Student Crises

Tuesday, October 22, 2024
9:30 AM – 10:20 AM PDT
Location: Salon 1
Presentation Description: You can’t predict student crises. So, the next best thing is to be prepared for them. This session will discuss the key players to consider in your “Crisis Toolkit,” including international student advisors, campus and local resources, and health insurance. With a focus on collaboration, we will walk through how to build a Crisis Toolkit specifically for international students so that you and your team can calmly and efficiently respond to the unexpected. You will leave the session with a clear path forward to creating your own Crisis Toolkit for your office and campus.

Learning Objectives:

  • Identify key players in crisis management on your campus.
  • Define a “crisis toolkit” for international students and know the steps involved to put one together.
  • Be able to recognize your own (the advisor’s) role in international student crisis on your specific campus and where it fits in with other resources and health insurance.
