Know Where to Turn Pop-Up Booth: 16 Days of Activism

To mark the United Nations' 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, our Mental Health Services team invites you to stop by a pop-up booth and learn about the community supports available to those experiencing gender-based violence.

When someone experiences gender-based violence, knowing where to turn for help can make all the difference. This pop-up booth brings together campus and community resources so you can learn about the support available to you, a friend, or someone you care about.

Why This Matters

Many survivors don't know what help is available or how to access it. Having this information, and knowing it's confidential, free, and accessible, can be the first step toward safety and healing. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or preparing to help someone else, knowing what resources are available is crucial.
