Sexual Assault Violence Prevention

Off-Campus Resources

Sexual Trauma Crisis and Recovery Services

These services provide specially trained advocates to assist the survivors of sexual assault and their families.

This number will also provide arrangements for a SAFE nurse. The SAFE Project provides compassionate and professional care for sexual assault survivors after an attack. Survivors are treated by trained sexual assault specialists in a private examination room with a shower, and are ordered a fresh change of clothing. This service is free of charge. Using this service does not mean you have to press charges.
