The panel is composed of First Responders to Sexual Assault in Our Community. It is a dialogue among professionals who work together, through their different sectors, to serve survivors of sexual assault in their individual journeys to recovery. The dialogue will be candid and interactive, allowing students and faculty to (i) Learn about the pool of services and structures for survivors and their families (ii) Gain an understanding of institutional policy and practice for responding to survivors (iii) Identify social and political opportunities for increased community cooperation, professional partnerships and service to survivors.
