In-person, drop-in support for students experiencing academic difficulties.
Support Spaces
Support spaces—also known as affinity spaces—are drop-in spaces offered during the Fall and Spring semesters. These spaces allow students to connect with peers, share experiences, and receive support without a long-term commitment. They are open to students whether they are currently connected to CPS, seeking services, waiting to get connected, or simply looking for additional support. Students do not need to be current CPS clients to attend.
Support spaces are not clinical therapy groups and do not involve diagnosis, treatment planning, or therapeutic interventions. They are a supplemental resource and do not replace individual or group mental health treatment.
