JHSAP is a comprehensive resource designed to provide counseling support, professional advice, and emergency response to students on a wide variety of topics ranging from severe to everyday problems. Services are free, confidential, and available to students, their partners, and dependent family members. JHSAP is committed to supporting students from different racial, ethnic, nationality, gender, ability, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic backgrounds. In a safe and confidential setting, JHSAP clinicians work to understand how each individual’s unique concerns impact varied life roles and collaborate to best identify and manage challenging issues in healthy ways.
Our students are part of a larger community at Johns Hopkins; as such, JHSAP provides educational workshops and special events across campuses with the goal of enhancing well-being and reducing the stigma of getting help. In addition, JHSAP provides consultations for faculty and staff to ensure they have the necessary tools to best support their students' emotional well-being and academic performance.
Please note that JHSAP cannot provide over-the-phone counseling services and that not all JHSAP content is available to students outside of the U.S. The COVID-19 situation is causing significant change and potential anxiety and distress for our community. This is an unprecedented event, and JHSAP is committed to supporting students wherever they may be. The JHSAP website will be updated with additional information and resources as the process unfolds.
Here are some things to know about JHSAP’s current operations:
24/7 mental health support is available for students by calling the JHSAP number (443) 287-7000 or toll free (866) 764-2317.
The JHSAP office is open 8:30am-5:00pm, Monday through Friday.
Appointments will be offered via video and phone and, when appropriate, in person.
Video telehealth services (via Zoom or Doxy.me) are available for students who are in Maryland and DC and whose mental health needs can be served via this platform.
JHSAP is glad to assist students in finding care resources within their communities.
Students who are already connected to a JHSAP clinician can call as noted above or send their clinician a secure message to jhsap@jhu.edu for any non-urgent issues.
JHSAP urges you to attend to your emotional and mental well-being, and to reach out for support during these challenging times.

Here are some things to know about Student Disability Services’ current operations.
SDS Homewood Office: Hours, Staffing, Appointments
Student Disability Services Homewood will be moving to fully remote operations as of Tuesday March 17, 2020.
• The best way to reach SDS Homewood will be by emailing studentdisabilityservices@jhu.edu
• Starting Tuesday 3/17 the SDS phone, 410-516-4720, will be taking messages and staff will be checking it on the hour during business hours from 8:30 am to 5 pm, Monday through Friday.
• Appointments will be available by Zoom or phone and can be scheduled during business hours.

• If an urgent need arises that may require direct interaction with the SDS Homewood office, please contact the office by both email and phone. A staff member will be available to come in to the office if the resolution of your concern cannot be done remotely.
Disability accommodations and services for schools moving to remote classes
SDS is continuing to work with students already registered to ensure that the transition to remote classes will be effective. This process will involve many changes in a short amount of time and there are some things you can do to make sure your needs are addressed:
o Reach out to your faculty members to learn about how your courses will be delivered as well as how accommodations will work. Faculty may elect to use different delivery methods and formats so it will be important to know these details as soon as possible.
o Some accommodations may not be delivered in the same way in a remote setting, and it will be important to contact your faculty to get guidance from them about how things will work for a given course.
o Contact SDS with any questions or concerns as soon as possible. SDS is available to support you and your faculty with this transition.
o SDS has been collaborating with instructional design staff in providing guidance around accommodations to those assisting with setting up the remote courses as well as to all faculty who currently have students using accommodations.
o With the move to remote course delivery, there may be a learning curve for new technologies as well as potential new challenges in delivering accommodations. Please reach out to SDS to talk things through, report problems, and let them know if you need additional accommodations or support.
New Accommodation Requests
Students may discover that accommodations are needed for the first time due to the change to remote classes. Please contact the SDS coordinator for your school to get started with the SDS registration process. Many aspects of the process are already online, and meetings to discuss your needs, explain how things work, and finalize accommodations will happen remotely.
Students remaining in the residence halls on campus (Homewood and Peabody)
Please let SDS know you are here so that we can continue to communicate with you about any updates or changes that may impact you in a particular way. SDS services will be delivered remotely including exam accommodations for all remote classes; this is to reduce contact and also provide consistency in the way we deliver accommodations.
If you need additional support during this time, please do not hesitate to reach out so that SDS can assist you in sorting out any disability related concerns and connecting to appropriate local resources.
