What We Do
Johns Hopkins has expanded its confidential resources to serve all students and trainees who have experienced gender-based violence, including stalking, sexual harassment, intimate partner violence (commonly known as dating/domestic violence), and sexual assault. (Note: see footnote for caveats to confidentiality.)
As confidential resources, the Gender-Based Violence Prevention Team is able to:
- Offer support and accompany students through University reporting processes (if that is a route a person would like to explore), including:
- Navigating and explaining JHU’s sexual misconduct policy and procedures.
- Navigating and explaining Title IX policy and procedures.
- Filing reports with the Office of Institutional Equity.
- Connecting with Public Safety.
- Offer support and accompany students through local reporting processes (if that is a route a person would like to explore), including:
- Filing police reports.
- Filing orders of protection (commonly known as “restraining orders”).
- Filing peace orders (also commonly known as “restraining orders”).
- Connect and accompany students to additional on campus resources like case managers, healthcare services, counseling services, the Office of Institutional Equity.
- Connect and accompany students to additional off campus resources like hotlines, survivor support services, counseling services, and SAFE exams (commonly known as “rape kits”).
- Act as a sounding board, help with correspondence to resources, hold processing space, and anything else that is helpful.
Our training is rooted in trauma-informed response, and we focus on survivor-led problem-solving. To that end, we seek to support students in whatever is helpful to them in that moment. We will never pressure students to file a report. We serve all JHU students and trainees, and anyone can work with any of us, but each of us is a designated first point of contact. In addition to acting as a confidential resources, the GBVP team also provides programming and education around gender-based violence prevention and survivor support, including Bystander Intervention Training for grads and undergrads, the JHU Consent Campaign, and more. If you are interested in scheduling programing, you can use this form.

Footnote: While we are generally not obligated to share accounts of gender-based violence with anyone at JHU or otherwise, there are a few exceptions to that per Maryland law. They are:
- if someone shares wanting to harm themselves or someone else.
- if someone shares accounts of abuse or neglect of a minor (even if the person is no longer a minor) and even if the perpetrator is deceased.
- if someone shares accounts of abuse or neglect a vulnerable adult (like an elderly person or a person with significant disability), even if the perpetrator is deceased.
