If you are in immediate danger call 9-1-1

If you have experienced sexual assault, domestic/dating violence, and/or stalking, it is important to remember that you are not responsible for what happened - it is not your fault. The only person who could have prevented the act of violence was the perpetrator. When beginning the healing process, it can be helpful to choose to be with people who will believe what you say and support you. Whether you want to talk about your experiences or not, there are many people andÌýresourcesÌýthat can help in your recovery.

It is completely normal to not know if you want to report an incident of sexual assault, dating/domestic violence, or stalking.Ìý It is your right to be provided with information to help you make that informed decision. ¼ªÏé·»'s Campus Care Advocate (see below) can help you sort out your options and can accompany you to get medical attention as well as to any proceedings related to the sexual misconduct.Ìý
