Do I have support after that?

My question is, is there any support after all this has already happened? Let’s say, I suffered a sexual assault, I speak up and all this stuff, but do I have support after all that? Like psychological support or something?

Recommendations

  • Provide long-term support to victims/survivors through university services and/or through referals to external community-based agencies.

  • Offer fictionalized but representative examples of how disclosures and reports to the university have been handled.

  • Provide detail and clarity about what happens, and who helps the students involved, at every stage of the process following a disclosure or report.
