If someone has disclosed gender-based or sexual violence to you…

The experience of being subjected to gender-based violence can feel isolating.

You don’t need to have all the answers or be an expert to be able to support those in your life who have experienced this type of violence. Talking about gender-based violence can be difficult. For many survivors, the reaction of the first person they disclose to (often a friend or family member), can have a huge effect on their healing process.

Responding to Disclosures on Campus provides training and resources designed to help you respond if someone has disclosed gender-based or sexual violence to you.

You can contact Fanshawe's Sexual Violence Prevention Coordinator anytime to discuss how you can support a survivor in your life, or to assist with connecting the survivor with support and advocacy from a confidential support.
