ÌÇÐÄVlog

Whether you are a victim/survivor of sexual violence, or you know someone who is, it is important to be aware of available support systems and resources. Whatever course of action you choose, there are people willing to help. While it is critical for survivors of sexual violence to retain control of their own experience, not all resources are 100% confidential. Federal guidelines require most university employees to report sexual violence on and off campus. While these mandatory reporters safeguard confidentiality as much as possible, it cannot be guaranteed.

On-Campus Resources

The following three campus resources are 100% confidential. 

CASA (Center for Awareness of Sexual Assault) was established in 2003 as a partnership between ÌÇÐÄVlog and Family Support Center. CASA is an outreach office of Family Support Center designed to provide victim-centered sexual assault support services to the ÌÇÐÄVlog community. They provide a safe place for people to come and talk about any issues that they may have regarding a sexual assault, abusive relationship, or those of someone close to them. Even if you are not sure about an experience and are now feeling uncomfortable with what happened, you are welcome to come to CASA to talk.
