• Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) at University Park offers a general substance-related disorders group that is open to all students. It is not a 12-step group, but rather focuses on establishing a healthier way of life, including addressing group members’ substance-related problems. The group process includes the development of insight, social skills-building, and improved expression of feelings. For information on individual or group counseling, call (814) 863-0395 or visit www.sa.psu.edu/caps/. • The LGBTA Student Resource Center has a list of CAPS counselors who are on the Support Network and are LGBT friendly. Staff can also use Employee Assistance Program and ask for a referral to someone who has experience with LGBTA issues and concerns. The toll-free number is 1-800-858-2778. • Many LGBTA individuals attend the local Alcoholics Anonymous groups. The phone number is (814) 237-3757.
