The Counseling Center has developed a series of self-help brochures on a variety of topics of interest to students. These brochures include general information as well as helpful tips on dealing with the issue addressed. Some brochures have also been translated into other languages. The Counseling Center has also developed a referral handbook, Identifying and Referring Troubled Students for faculty, staff, teaching assistants, and other campus professionals. All of these publications are free and available at the Counseling Center for University of Illinois students, staff, and faculty.
