Prevention and Response Services
Sexual violence is an issue that impacts everyone. If you, or someone you know, have experienced sexual violence, there are supports available to you. The Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Manager is responsible for education around consent, empowerment, and raising awareness about sexual and gender-based violence, as well as providing compassionate support and trauma-informed care.
The Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Manager provides the following support:
Personal support
Have you experienced sexual or gender-based violence? Whether it was recent or in the past, you have a place here at Trent to be heard and supported.
You will receive confidential, and compassionate support. We can work on alleviating distress, talk about coping skills, and enhance your overall wellness. Learn about your options for on and off-campus resources, and support to access them.
To connect for support email consent@trentu.ca or call us at (705) 748-1011 x7792.
Organizational support
Do you have a student group on campus? Would you like to have a discussion on topics related to sexual violence and/or consent?
The Sexual Violence Prevention and Response Manager can attend your meeting or create a workshop just for your group. Your group can host a facilitated discussion, learn a skill like how to support a friend in need, or have an information session.
Educational support
Do you want to learn about self-care, boundaries, and empowerment?
Workshops will be facilitated throughout the year. See our upcoming events page or follow us on Instagram @consentattrent.
If you have another idea or a suggestion of something you would like to see, contact us at consent@trentu.ca
All services are free and open to Trent students of all genders and diverse lived experiences.
