What is ASU Victim-Survivor Services?

 

ASU Campus

ASU Victim Advocates offers free advocacy and support for students and employees affected by sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking, sexual harassment and other related experiences. ASU Victim-Survivor Services is a safe and confidential starting point for ASU students and employees affected by these issues. ASU Victim Advocates are confidential except when required by law to report incidents of abuse of a child or vulnerable adult or risks of harm to self or others.

How does ASU Victim-Survivor Services provide support to ASU community members?

 

Chairs

ASU Victim-Survivor Services provides a confidential place to seek support, information and assistance if you have experienced sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking, sexual harassment and other related experiences. Victim Advocates are part of the Sexual and Relationship Violence Program (SRVP), and can assist you in determining your next steps, whether that’s considering your options for reporting, seeking medical or mental health services, safety planning or finding resources to help you feel safer. This service is separate from ASU Police, and while an ASU Victim Advocate can support you through the criminal justice process, meeting with a victim advocate will not automatically initiate an investigation by the university or the police. ASU Victim Advocates can serve as a good starting point if you feel uncomfortable or harmed by any experiences you have had, are unsure if you want to make a report, have questions regarding the resources available to you, or want to discuss your options for where you can get help.

What to expect when connecting with a Victim Advocate from ASU Victim-Survivor Services.

You can reach out to ASU Victim-Survivor Services via phone at 480-727-5167 or through email at victimservices@asu.edu. A member of the Victim-Survivor Services team will coordinate a time to connect with you whether it’s over the phone, virtually, by email or in-person at ASU’s Downtown Phoenix, Tempe, West or Polytechnic campuses. During this meeting, they will invite you to ask questions regarding next steps, potential outcomes, finding support and any other information you seek. The advocates will never press you to share more information than you’re comfortable with during your confidential conversation with them.

ASU Victim-Survivor Services is not a 24-hour, 7 days a week service, so if you are attempting to reach ASU Victim-Survivor Services outside their office hours (Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.), there may be a delay in response.

For immediate crisis support and intervention, call ASU’s dedicated 24/7 mental health line at 480-921-1006.
