Need Support?

Part of being human and in community is sometimes needing support from others.听 We are here for you!听 听

If you are in crisis:

If you think you are at risk of harming yourself or others please immediately call University Counseling Services at 617鈥�552鈥�3310, during regular working hours. If after hours you can still contact听UCS at 617-552-3310 and follow prompts to speak with a clinician. More information can be found at the听UCS website.听 Students can also call BCPD at 617-552-4444 for any emergency situation or to ask for help.

Other LGBTQ-specifc crisis hotlines are:

• The Trevor Project: (866) 488-7386
• The Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender National Hotline: (888) 843-4564
• Trans Lifeline: (877) 565-8860

If you are not in crisis:

The professional and graduate student staff in Student Outreach and Support Services are here to help. You do not have to be sure that you are part of the LGBTQ+ community to reach out for support and we support students with more than just aspects of their sexuality or gender identity. We routinely work with students who are exploring or questioning their identities and also with LGBTQ+ students who need support in other areas of their lives.听 You can call us at 617-552-3470, email:听student.support@bc.edu, or听email any of our staff directly.

You can also join us at our听weekly discussion groups.听

If you feel that you have been subject to a violation of the University鈥檚 鈥渂ias-motivated conduct policy,鈥� please also see information from the听Office of the Dean of Students regarding reporting any allegations of misconduct.
