Red Folder at Penn State
Students may experience different levels of distress across various areas of their lives. The type and amount of distress they are experiencing will require different actions and resources.
The Red Folder initiative is a guide to help faculty, staff, student leaders, and others who interact with students to recognize, respond effectively to, and refer Penn State students in distress.
