The following are suggested steps and numbers to guide victims of sexual assault:

Regardless of which office the victim first reported the case to i.e. Residential Office, Lecturer, the contact person at this stage would provide immediate support and short-term problem solving. The primary goal is to help the student secure needed professional services. This individual will report allegations to the Department of Public Safety. (293-3136)

• Students are encouraged to get medical care. Student Health Service (SHS) is available to students Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 4:30 PM with the exception of opening 9:30 on Thursdays. Any other times a student needing medical attention should go to the Emergency Room at Ruby Memorial Hospital. Student Health can offer the sexual assault victim a medical examination and consultation, testing for sexually transmitted infections and pregnancy by a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE), and follow-up as needed. Sexual assault evidence collection (rape kit) is not performed at SHS. If the student requests it, and if within 96 hours of the assault, Ruby Memorial Hospital Emergency Room or Student Health Service (SHS) will complete an evidence collection kit. SHS will pay the charges related to administering the kit.
  
  
• Students are encouraged to speak with the Sexual Assault Response Coordinator (293-1377) for support in understanding, evaluating, and choosing among the services available and will offer to facilitate such a meeting.
  
  
• Counseling services are available at Carruth Center (293-4431). All contacts with Carruth Center are voluntary and confidential.
  
  
• If victim has no safe place to go, he or she may contact Student Life (293-5611) or if living on campus, the Residence Hall Coordinator or Resident Faculty Leader.
  
  
• It is important that the student understand that WVU has a hearing process for dealing with incidents of sexual misconduct. Details of this process can be confidentially discussed with the Student Life Staff (293-5611) or the Associate Dean of Residential Education. Student Life may initiate the disciplinary process on its own initiative.
  
  
• The Office of Social Justice (293-5496) is also available to all students. This office works to protect the rights of all students and is available for questions concerning those rights.
  
  
• The Campus Ministry Center will offer the student counseling support, crisis- intervention services, and spiritual care. All services are strictly voluntary. Appointments can be made at 292-4061.
