As our Evergreen community grieves the loss of Jonathan Rodriguez and those harmed by the December 2023 incident on campus, and for any who are navigating grief and loss, we offer these resources for students seeking additional support:
If you find yourself in immediate distress, please call the Thurston-Mason Crisis Clinic at (360) 586-2800.
A weekly Grief Support meeting will be held with Student Wellness Services counselors Mondays, from 3 - 4 pm in the Social Justice Center on the 2nd floor of Evans Hall.
We also encourage students to schedule individual appointments with our counselors at Student Wellness Services on the 3rd floor of Seminar II B.
