Trigger Warning: Sexual Violence. Anyone who is a victim of sexual assault should immediately contact the Northeast State Police Department or the College’s Equity and Compliance Officer. Reporting such an assault does not mean the victim must press charges or take the incident to criminal court. The reporting does establish a record of the incident for possible Timely Warning/Emergency Notification alerts to the campus community. In a case of sexual assault, the victim should make every effort to preserve evidence at the scene of the crime and compose an accurate description of the events leading up to, and during, the attack.
Whether victims of sexual violence or other offenses, individuals can be assisted with resources, due process information, campus services, and community referrals. For assistance with confidential reports, contact Counseling Services at 423.323.0211 or Counseling@NortheastState.edu.
For more information, contact the Equity and Compliance Office at EquityOfficer@NortheastState.edu. Call 423.354.5296 or visit the office in Room P310 of the Pierce Administration Building.
