April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month (SAAM). Register and learn about SAAM events to show your support for student academic well-being. When staff and faculty participate, it sends a powerful message to students that we care about their safety, healing, and well-being. On Denim Day, we also encourage you to wear jeans as a visible sign of solidarity and share your support by tagging @shareatstanford on instagram.

Medical Options

Medical resources provide diagnosis, treatment, follow-up, & referrals for medical complications of sexual and/or relationship violence-related issues. In addition, they care for physical injuries and can test for STIs, pregnancy, & unintended drug ingestion.

Medical options are confidential, although medical personnel are required by California law to report to the police instances where they observe physical injury caused by assault.

SAFEsSome medical resources (e.g. Stanford Hospital or Santa Clara Valley Medical Center) are able to perform forensic evidence collection processes (“rape kits”).
