Red Folder

See something... Say something... Do something.

The Red Folder is a resource guide for faculty and staff directed by the CSU Chancellor’s Office. The CSU recognizes that individuals may seek support from faculty and staff members with whom they have fostered a trusting relationship.   

The Red Folder reference guide contains information, safety tips, and contact information on a variety of emergency campus and community resources to immediately help any Spartans in distress. Additionally, it provides guidance on responding to incidents in which an individual might be of danger to self or a threat to others. 

The Red Folder was developed by a systemwide workgroup consisting of Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) directors, counselors, student conduct administrators, and health educators. This project was designed to put at your fingertips the information you need to identify, respond to, and refer individuals in distress.

Employees of SJSU should have access to a physical Red Folder and a digital version on the desktop of their computers.
