Campus Resources for Sexual Assault Prevention

Sexual Assault & Violence Response Resources

Information you can use to seek resources and support for sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking crimes, and ways to report the crime to law enforcement and the campus.

The SUNY Personal Safety Committee and the Office of University Life work to provide our campus leaders with guidance documents and resources, as well as professional development sessions.

Given President Obama’s initiatives to prevent sexual assault, sexual violence on college campuses across the U.S., we have gathered some resources below and welcome additions to the listing.
