Title IX explained
Training
Your safety is the number one priority. If you have experienced physical or sexual violence, 去一个安全的地方,立即寻求能够帮助你的人的支持. You are not alone. Many people can provide medical and emotional support, 不管你是选择纪律处分还是刑事诉讼.
记住,无论在什么情况下,都不能怪你. Nothing you have done (dress the way you wanted to, drink too much, have sex with the same person before, etc.)证明某人对你进行性侵犯或身体侵犯. 性暴力发生在所有性别、身份和性取向的人身上.
