• How to balance the founding principles of higher education case management with the evolution of new expectations of services — creatively and effectively meet the needs of all students without burning out your staff or budget.

• How to move from reaction and response to student behavior towards being proactive and skill building in the prevention services you provide — meet issues head on before they become big problems. 

• How to utilize information and data to inform your prevention and intervention strategies — you don’t have to reinvent the wheel to take your case management program to the next level.

• How to draw upon the evolving fields and existing practices, such as positive psychology, resiliency and population health care to round out the work you do — retain your students by providing them with the support they need to stay healthy and safe.
