CARE is here to support all Tufts students (on all campuses) who have been impacted by sexual violence regardless of the year, time, or location the experience took place. CARE is confidential, which means if you have concerns related to issues of sexual violence, you can talk to CARE without being identified to the Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO).
With complete confidentiality, we can offer you:
Trauma-informed emotional support
Transportation to and from a local hospital to get a forensic medical exam ("rape kit")
Discussion of your options
Safety planning
Help with anonymous reporting
Information on reporting options
Support in writing a complaint or response to a complaint
Connecting you to an off-campus mental health provider
Safer sex supplies
Trauma-informed educational materials
Information about other services on campus (e.g. how to get a counselor at CMHS)
With your consent, we can collaborate with campus partners to help with:
Academic support/flexibility
Housing changes (if you no longer feel safe in your space)
No-Contact Orders
Access to mental and physical healthcare services on and off campus
Filing formal complaints to OEO
Filing criminal reports with TUPD
Access to legal resources
If you would prefer to connect directly with a provider other than CARE, please explore the resources below.
