Types of Support
These are examples of the kinds of support that we need. These are also ways we can support someone else.
Information
Providing information, resources, or skills training for a specific area. Your campus is providing this kind of support through trainings like this one.
Nurturing
Showing empathy and compassion without feeling the need to give advice or suggestions. Being thoughtful, listening, sending a meaningful text or email, putting a hand on someone's shoulder. Nurturing is letting someone know you are there for them without trying to "fix" them.
