UCR CARE (Campus Advocacy, Resources, and Education)

Hello everyone, we hope you all have had a smooth transition to winter quarter so far. Today we will be discussing the UCR CARE (Campus Advocacy, Resources, and Education) Program, which is an intervention and prevention support program committed to ending sexual violence on our community. CARE was developed to provide the UCR community with an office of advocacy and support, a safe and supportive environment for survivors, and creating social change through training and educational resources related to violence prevention.

They provide confidential support and advocacy services for victims of sexual assault through safety planning, accompaniment, and crisis intervention. They are also able to help coordinate with Case Management, receiving accommodations if needed, and referrals to the appropriate on and off campus services.

Additionally, they can help connect individuals to various 24/7 online chat supports. Through Safety Planning, CARE advocates help individuals come up with ways to stay safe and reduce risk of future harm. In the case you have a suspicion someone you know may be a victim of sexual violence, the CARE office provides resources for how to approach and best help them.

The CARE office staff and CARE Sexual Assault & Violence Education (SAVE) student peer educators offer a wide range of educational and outreach programs to build the culture of consent and end sexual violence at UCR, and individuals are able to request personal trainings as well.

We hope we were able to provide you with some new information today and hope that everyone is staying safe!
