  • Ensuring Safe Workplaces
    Safer can provide guidance around reporting options and access to appropriate resources to address safety concerns, including on and off campus incidences.
  • Personalized Support Services
    Safer understands that these experiences can deeply affect your sense of safety—both in the workplace and at home. Our approach is grounded in empathy, empowerment, and respect. Whether you're seeking guidance, resources, or simply someone to talk to, we're here to support your healing and well-being in a safe, nonjudgmental space.
  • Meeting Locations
    Safer is located in Student Health Services (SHS) and accepts walk-ins. However, we understand that confidentiality is especially important for faculty and staff members. Your comfort and privacy matter to us, and we’re here to support you in the way that feels safest and most convenient. That’s why we offer flexible appointment options—including phone and Zoom—so you can connect with us from wherever you feel most at ease.
  • Confidentiality
    Safer Advocates are certified as Sexual Assault Counselors (California Code, Evidence Code – EVID § 1035.2) and Domestic Violence Counselors (California Code, Evidence Code – EVID § 1037.1). The California Evidence Code grants Counselors privileged communication with victims that protects confidential communication between the Counselor and survivor. 
    More information around confidentiality can be found in the Confidentiality Guidelines.
  • Employee Resource
    The Faculty & Staff Assistance Program, also known as FSAP, is a free, confidential resource to help you resolve personal, family, or work-related problems. Services provided by FSAP are available only by appointment and are at no cost to employees.
