Not ready to file a report, but still looking for some support?
A Confidential Resource may be the perfect avenue for you! A confidential resource means that information shared is protected by federal and state laws and cannot be shared without your explicit permission. Speaking with a confidential resource can help an individual process the event that occurred and figure out what their next step should be without having a report submitted to the university. Use the drop down below for a list of RWU specific confidential resources.
Any person who reports that they are a victim of sexual harassment has the right to confidential support on and off campus. The following lists include confidential resources.
