Students in Distress
NVCC does not offer counseling services,so the NOVACares office has developed a
multi-tiered system to support students in need.
YOUplay a vital part in this system.
Staff & Faculty are frequently in the best position to notice and report student behavior.

The Power of You
Students will often share personal information with professors, especially if it is impacting their grades.
Report your concerns early! By reporting your low level concerns, we can
intervene before a behavior becomes more serious.
Early intervention is critically important in student retention and in keeping the college safe.

A Word on Disabilities.
• Students may provide you with an MOA explaining the accommodations they need.
• Students are not required to tell you why the MOA is in place and you are not to ask!
• A disability does not excuse a student from adhering to the student code of conduct
