JHU 24/7 Sexual Assault Helpline
410-516-7333

Need to talk about sexual violence or misconduct?

Stalking? Harassment? Relationship violence? If it felt wrong, we are here to listen.

Confidential. No pressure. 24/7 support on the HelpLine (410-516-7333).

No pressure to report.

You decide the next steps.

We are a community of confidential staff who are trained in trauma-informed, culturally responsive practices and do not have the same reporting and duties as other staff and faculty members on campus. Connecting with any of the confidential resources listed here does NOT constitute making an official report of sexual misconduct to the University. Any information disclosed to a confidential resource will not be shared with other University offices or personnel without your consent except in those rare circumstances where it is required by law to do so (e.g., intention to harm self and/or others, reasonable suspicion of abuse or neglect of child or dependent adult, or court order).
