For Students
Feeling stressed or anxious in situations that are uncertain and evolving is normal. We recommend the following steps:
- Find credible sources you can trust to avoid any panic that can be caused by misinformation.
- Follow guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention about preventing the spread of the virus.
- Check our website and social media channels for PC updates.
- And, since as a student you are automatically signed up for PC's Alert system you’ll get important messages sent right to your cell phone.
PC offers the following services to students:
- The Peninsula College C.A.R.E. Team connects students, faculty and staff with resources to help them be successful and safe.
- Mental Health Counseling Services: free, short-term counseling when classes are in session. To schedule an appointment, call (360) 417-6340.
For Faculty and Staff
Feeling stressed or anxious in situations that are uncertain and evolving is normal. We recommend the following in addition to the above steps for students: the Washington State Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is a free, confidential program created to promote the health, safety and well-being of public employees. They’ve posted a new handout on coping with disease outbreak.
The college intranet (SharePoint) has Human Resources related information for employees.
