Sexual Assault 资源 (Local)

Preserve Evidence/ Report to Police

The College encourages victims to contact appropriate authorities as soon as the individual is prepared to make a report of the incident. The 第九条 Coordinator will assist in facilitating the meeting with law enforcement.

There is a limited window of time (typically 72 to 96 hours) following an incident of sexual assault to preserve physical and other forms of evidence. Gathering such evidence does 不 commit an individual to pursue legal action against the assailant, but is important for preserving that option.

Hospitals are 不 required to report non-identifying information to the College or anyone else. However, hospitals providing care to individuals reporting sexual assault are required to collect and maintain the chain of custody of sexual assault evidence for 不 less than 30 days 除非 the patient signs a statement directing the hospital 不 to collect it.
