If you’ve experienced or witnessed harm, help is available. Call 9-1-1 immediately if you are in danger or need urgent assistance.

- Sexual or gender-based violence
- Harassment and bullying
- Discrimination and racism
- Disruptive, threatening or violent behaviour
Understand the Options
The Student Resource Coordinator can help you explore your options for informal resolution, anonymous reporting and formal reporting. They can also help you understand available resources and university policies.
If you do choose to take formal action, the Student Resource Coordinator will be there to support you through the process.

You can use the Anonymous Reporting tool to submit a confidential, anonymous report about sex and gender-based violence. Visit the website for the ART here.
