Responding to expressed student needs identified by the Black Survivors Coalition, CAPS has contracted with community mental health providers experienced in serving traditionally marginalized or underserved communities, particularly women and femmes of color who have experienced sexual assault, harassment or violence and racial trauma. Services are free of charge for all currently enrolled students who haven’t already engaged in ongoing counseling work with CAPS or with outside community providers.

Providers maintain their own clinical records, which are separate from any records at CAPS. It is important to discuss emergency and crisis procedures with your individual provider.

Students in treatment with a provider through the Racial Trauma Community Provider program can always access CAPS after-hours crisis services by calling 202-687-6985 and pressing “1”.

Georgetown University administers its opportunities without regard to, and does not discriminate on the basis of: age, color, disability, family responsibilities, familial status, gender identity or expression, genetic information, marital status, national origin, personal appearance, political affiliation, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, source of income, veteran’s status or any other factor prohibited by law.

The Division of Student Affairs, in conjunction with other campus partners, has developed a Faculty and Staff Resource Guide, a guide created primarily to support faculty and staff in assisting students experiencing various levels of distress.

This fund was created to help offset the cost of mental health care for Georgetown undergraduate or graduate students referred out from CAPS for ongoing mental health treatment in a community setting. Funded by an initiative led by the Georgetown Undergraduate Student Association (GUSA) and the Office of Student Affairs in 2018, the initial seed money came from GUSA and an anonymous donor.  Additional funding to expand this program to graduate students was donated by Georgetown’s Graduate Student Government (GradGov) for 2019-2020. Ongoing funding is being supported by the Division of Student Affairs.

In July 2021, the School of Medicine (GUSOM) joined this cause by contributing funds to support medical students in need.
