Safe Harbor is Auburn University's sexual assault assistance and awareness program for students.

A part of Student Counseling Services, Safe Harbor is committed to reducing men's violence against women by increasing awareness about dating/domestic violence, stranger rape, acquaintance rape, sexual harassment, and other forms of sexual violence.

At no charge, Safe Harbor provides comprehensive services to students who have been victims of sexual violence. Such services include counseling, advocacy, consultations, and referral services.

Advocacy Services
Victim advocates link Auburn students with the wide range of services available both on campus and in the Auburn community. Such services may include medical care, short-term and long-term counseling, and communication with law enforcement agencies.
Victim advocates also connect the student with the academic community to assist with academic difficulties as a result of assault.

Counseling Services
Counseling is available free of charge to Auburn students who have been victims of sexual assault and/or dating violence. Counseling services are confidential - your parents will not be notified, nor are counselors permitted to discuss your case with anyone without your express permission. These services are provided on campus by licensed professional counselors. Counseling is also available for secondary victims - including friends, roommates, or boyfriends.

Awareness Activities/Education
Awareness and outreach programming is designed to increase community and campus awareness about violence against women and Safe Harbor services. Awareness activities and specialized programs for students are scheduled throughout the year to highlight the issue of sexual assault and promote student safety.
