How can we guarantee privacy?
How can we ensure that victim's privacy is not violated? I don’t think that’s the word but –that everything is kept private.
Recommendations
-
Promote SANE nurses as supporters for victims/survivors. Ideally, this would happen in the context of a formal partnership with SANE nurses, which includes 24/7 availability of SANE nurse services on campus.
-
Use an app or other tool that allows students to anonymously ask questions about sexual violence and university policies against sexual violence.
-
In the policy itself and in materials and presentations promoting the policy, define "confidential" and "anonymous," and explain how these concepts pertain to the policy, university-based sexual assault services, and the limits on confidentiality and anonymity.
