Imagine that you don't feel safe.  Someone is following you, texting and emailing you, and you are afraid.  In one year, 7.5 million Americans were victims of stalking - a dangerous crime that can happen to anyone.  Each January, we participate in the National Stalking Awareness Month to help raise awareness and dispel common myths on the topic.

If you believe you or someone you know may be a victim of stalking, contact our Equity Officer/Title IX Coordinator.

Each April, we join the nation in recognizing the National Sexual Assault Awareness Month.  With 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 men experiencing some form of sexual violence in their lives it is time for us to say "No More".  Throughout the month we try to come up with new and creative ways to raise awareness on the topic to help eliminate sexual assault nationwide.

If you believe that you or someone you know may be a victim of sexual assault, contact our Equity Officer/Title IX Coordinator.

Domestic Violence is a pattern of behavior used to establish power and control over another person through fear and intimidation, often (but not always) including the threat or use of physical violence.  Each October, during the National Domestic Violence Awareness Month we promote awareness by using creative ways to help our campus community identify what domestic violence is and begin conversations on what we can each do to help end it.  Together we say "No More" to domestic violence.

If you believe that you or someone you know may be a victim of domestic violence, contact our Equity Officer/Title IX Coordinator.
