SAFE IC stands for the “Stabilization Assistance & Follow-Up Enhancement Intervention Committee.” It is a multidisciplinary team that meets to identify, assess, and respond to behavior that may pose a threat of harm to pro students, employees, and invitees, thereby encouraging an environment of increased safety. SAFE IC is designed to provide a coordinated referral system, a detailed behavioral assessment process, an internal communications structure, an intentional intervention strategy, and a comprehensive monitoring system to allow for follow-up and support.
