NAU Counseling
We at Counseling Services are deeply saddened that the new year has begun with ongoing violence and a profound loss of life. We also understand that this loss will be felt across individuals and communities here at NAU. Given the weight of these tragedies, we would like to remind you that we are here to hold space for all impacted by the senseless violence in our nation. Same-day crisis services are offered Monday through Friday between 10am-5 pm, and Jacks Care 24/7 (866-656-9983) is available anytime, anywhere. Please remember that you do not have to walk through these injustices alone.

NAU’s Counseling Services (CS) recognizes that the human rights of individuals from marginalized backgrounds continue to be under attack on a national and global scale. Here at CS, we are diligently working to foster an environment where those who are impacted by social injustices can find connection, hope, and empowerment. While we recognize systemic changes must occur to create a more equitable, inclusive, and just society, we also recognize that inner healing can happen within the context of community. NAU’s CS is dedicated to ensuring that a culture of safety and belonging is fostered for all living beings regardless of identity and group membership.
