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

Hi Stephanie,

 

I recommend that you check your state’s statutes regarding convening confidential status on what are referred to in Vermont as “crisis workers.” Here is Vermont’s (poorly written but serviceable) statute: Vermont State Statute V.S.A 12 1614 – Victim and Crisis Worker Privilege.

 

Hope this is helpful—

Subject: support for making non-professional counselors and advocates confidential

 

Hi Everyone, 

 

I'm wondering if anyone knows of additional resources beside the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault's Sample Language for Reporting and Confidentially Disclosing Sexual Violence publication that supports making non-professional counselors and advocates on universities to be designated privileged/confidential resources to students?

 

We are trying to push for this designation at our Women's Center and I could use all the evidence/support I can garner. 

 

Thanks,
