The Université Laval Student Assistance Centre

There may be times during university when you are going through a transition, are worried about something or are feeling distressed, and you need help.

FSA ULaval sentinels: Liaisons for people in distress

The role of sentinels is to connect people in distress with the services they need. They are comparable to someone who knows first aid—able to offer immediate support while you wait for the specialists to take over. You can reach out directly to a sentinel, either for yourself or for a member of the student community you are worried about.
