How do I access support?

To schedule a session with a support worker at the SASC, you can phone our support line at 604-827-5180 Monday-Friday between 9AM to 9PM and Saturday-Sunday from 11AM to 7PM. You can also email sasc@ams.ubc.ca or check out our Contact Us page for more specific contact information. Both in-person and virtual options are available at this time.

The SASC now offers support over the messaging app Signal at 604-729-5476. For more information, see our Frequently Asked Questions at the bottom of this page. Please note that while general inquiries can be made over Signal, staff will need to go over our intake forms with you either over email, a phone/video call, or in-person appointment before ongoing support over Signal can be offered for safety reasons.

During phone or video calls, you are welcome to invite friends, family or supports from other organizations. We hope to be as flexible as possible so that you can be comfortable. 

Similar off-campus support organizations include SALAL (formerly WAVAW) and BWSS. Check out our Community Resources page for more options.
