Discussion List for campus-based and allied personnel working to end gender-based violence on campus.

I can’t say enough about the counseling center, CAPS, here at the University of Cincinnati. They created two positions that specifically address Title IX issues, added Protocol for after-hours phone service, and have been great at incorporating greater LGBTQ inclusion in their services. They recently hired a counselor who specializes in men’s issues which has been a nice inclusion as well. They provide free counseling related to any Title IX-covered issue, and when there is a formal complaint both the complainant and respondent get free counseling. We also work with them on getting them names proactively so they can make sure they don’t schedule complainants and respondents in ways that may result in them seeing the same counselor or being in the building near each other. I’ve been beyond impressed. http://www.uc.edu/counseling.html

Hi all, 

 

I am wondering what the counseling centers on your campuses are doing, if anything, to support survivors of sexual violence in the context of Title IX/VAWA? I have found information about best practices regarding prevention and policies, but cannot find many resources that focus specifically on campus counseling center involvement in response, intervention, etc.

 

Thanks in advance for any suggestions, research, or other resources you can provide. 

 

Emily
