Fulbright Assist 24/7 Support

The Fulbright ASSIST hotline is a 24/7 counseling and support service available to all U.S. Student and Scholar grantees while they are on program in their host countries. Fulbright ASSIST services will augment the health benefits that are concurrently provided through the Accident and Sickness Program for Exchanges (ASPE) plan administered by Seven Corners. 

Grantees needing assistance with routine health and/or emergency medical and dental services should continue to contact Seven Corners. The new Fulbright ASSIST 24/7 counseling and support service hotline is being administered by The ANVIL Group.  All telephone calls will be answered by medical personnel, who are trained to handle emergency and non-emergency situations.  Fulbright ASSIST staff will be able to provide support and counseling to grantees involved in a range of situations requiring mental health and other support, including depression, sexual assault or harassment, or adjusting to the host country culture. The Fulbright ASSIST staff is also available to provide personal safety guidance.

Additional details on the Fulbright ASSIST 24/7 hotline can be found on the Fulbright website at: Fulbright Student Program – ASPE Assist 24/7 Support (fulbrightonline.org)
