A student in crisis, or worried about a Veteran? Dial 988, then press 1, or text 838255 — the Veterans Crisis Line, free and confidential, 24/7 (veteranscrisisline.net).
The one rule: you may assist. You never certify to VA.Only a designated School Certifying Official certifies. Work-study and front-desk staff gather, check and hand over (VA SCO Training FAQs, updated 2026-09-23).
Pick what the student said. Answer the checks it asks, one per screen, then follow the steps. Each situation keeps its number, so “it’s a 4” still means the same thing at hand-off.
Nothing you pick here is saved or sent anywhere.
