Sexual Assault Services and Programs

We all share responsibility to create a campus environment where sexual violence will not be tolerated. The first step is to raise awareness and hold everyone accountable for stopping assaults, supporting victims, and creating and maintaining a culture of respect and non-violence. It’s on each of us.

If you have been a victim of sexual assault, know someone who has, or want to be more informed, review the services below for access to assistance.
