To meet the ongoing needs of our students, Kilgore College has professional counselors available for currently enrolled students seeking brief, solution-focused counseling as well as assistance with referrals to outside agencies/offices if longer-term counseling and/or services are needed. The Counseling staff proactively seeks training to continue building their professional capacity in order to provide relevant and best practice workshops and training for students and staff regarding mental health as well as establishing a suicide prevention program on campus.

The Kilgore College Early Alert program is designed to improve the retention and persistence of all students by providing added instructional support to low-risk, medium-risk, or high-risk students. One of the institutional core values is success and improvement and escalating student success. The goal is to increase faculty involvement in the Early Alert System.
The Instructional Student Support Department works closely with the retention team members and faculty to increase early alert participation through training, emphasizing using the system each term and implementing the five steps to engage students in the intervention process. The fives steps are: (1) reach out to the student within 48-hours of receiving the early-alert assignment by phone, (2) email, (3) virtual meeting, and (4) in person when needed; additional, each student account will be noted thoroughly with the intervention performed. (5) Finally, feedback on the interventions will be sent to the submitter (faculty/staff member) and the retention manager. The submitted concerns include attendance, grades, general (not grades/attendance), behavioral/disciplinary, confidential, drop from class, financial, other, and withdrawal from college.
DELIVERY FORMAT: The program has a hybrid format or has both online and in-person components.
PROGRAM SCALE: Medium-scale (reaches between 10 and 25 percent of its target population)
