Useful Resources

Whether you or someone you care about has been impacted by sexual or relationship violence, on campus and off campus support and resources are available to you.

It is entirely your decision if you tell someone, how you tell someone, and who you tell. Regardless of what you decide, there are many people at Grand View University who are committed to providing support for members of our campus community.

Please note that it is important for victim/survivors to know that the resources contained on this website can offer assistance even if you choose not to file a report or press charges.
