The fee for the first four visits, per incident, is covered by the agreement between VCOM and these agencies and is free to students and their immediate families.

The purpose of the sessions will be: (1) to provide crisis intervention and counseling services; (2) to determine the participant’s need for assistance, counseling, and treatment; or, (3) if appropriate, to refer the participant to one or more resources for assistance or treatment.
