Sexual Assault Services
Hampshire College is committed to creating a violence-free campus, developing and implementing prevention strategies, and providing victim/survivors with support, services and information.
There are a number of resources available to victim/survivors of sexual assault or relationship violence. There are also a wide range of options for taking action or seeking resolution, from legal recourse to a campus "no contact agreement." In the aftermath of an assault it can be confusing to know where to turn and what steps to take. The student Counselor Advocates and the Sexual Offense Services (SOS) Coordinator are confidential resources, and are specifically trained to work with victim/survivors of sexual assault. They are able to explain the resources and options available to you, answer any questions you may have, and provide emotional support. The Hampshire Sexual Offense Policy also contains definitions of what consitutes a sexual offense, what recourse you have, and what services are available to you.
