Student Assistance Program

HMS' Student Assistance Program (SAP) is an effective solution to the increasing and critical demand for student assistance services. Colleges and Universities are witnessing a dramatic rise in mental health issues and substance abuse among students. Institutions that offer counseling services are having trouble keeping pace with student needs and those without are struggling with a growing demand for those services.

When your organization partners with HMS, students facing any number of issues - depression, anxiety, substance abuse, domestic violence - are guaranteed confidential access to the professional help they need, when they need it, twenty-four hours a day, 365 days a year.
