Our Best Answer - What resources does CARE offer?

Campus Advocacy Resources and Education (CARE)

CARE Advocates believe that it is always the survivor’s decision to pursue any of the available resources or to report an incident to the police or the University. CARE Advocates provide affirming, empowering, and confidential support for survivors and bring a non-judgmental, caring approach to exploring all options and resources.
 
CARE offers free confidential advocacy to students, staff, and faculty impacted by dating/domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Our state certified advocates are here to help you navigate your options, provide you with support, connect you with resources on-campus or within the community, and serve as trusted point of contact throughout the whole process. After experiencing a traumatic event like a sexual assault, incident of intimate partner violence, or stalking, a survivor might not know what their options are. Confidential advocacy meetings with CARE allow the survivor to seek emotional, academic, housing, medical, reporting, and/or financial support and guidance.
