If you were sexually assaulted or raped before you came to Earlham, or while you are at Earlham College , you should know that there are Sexual Assault Survivors on campus to assist students who have been assaulted or raped.
Advocates are students trained in crisis intervention and active listening.
They are not trained counselors but they can make referrals for legal, medical, and counseling services. They will accompany survivors through all procedures. Each semester lists of advocates and their phone numbers are posted in bathrooms in residence halls and campus buildings, and the Campus Safety and Security Office. If rape or sexual assault occurs on campus, the individual is encouraged to report the crime to Campus Safety and Security. A survivor may talk to the Director of Campus Safety and Security whether or not they have decided to press charges against the perpetrator.
