  • Ensuring that students and employees receive evidence-based training on prevention and response annually empowers all members of the community to take action to stop sexual violence.

  • Implementing an amnesty policy for students who report incidents of sexual violence ensures that survivors are not intimidated or silenced due to fear of punishment due to alcohol consumption or drug use.


  • Collecting comprehensive data on sexual assault through anonymous climate surveys ensures transparency and allows colleges and universities to identify disproportionately impacted demographics, tailor solutions to the unique circumstances of their campus communities, and test the effectiveness of prevention programs.

  • Confidential advising services aid survivors in navigating the complex process of accessing necessary resources and understanding their rights.
