The VPAC Program Coordinator is considered a private non-confidential resource. This means if an incident of interpersonal violence is disclosed, the program coordinator would have the initial responsibility to only report non-identifiable information date, time, location and general nature of the incident (i.e. stalking, sexual assault, etc.) to the Title IX Coordinator. Identifiable information would only have to be shared if the Title IX Coordinator felt that there was a pattern of abuse or cause for fear of your safety or the safety of others.
VPAC offers a variety of interactive prevention and awareness programs. To request a program click here.
VPAC houses a library of resources, including books, articles, and DVDs to provide information about sexual assault, relationship violence, and stalking. If you would like to borrow any item please contact VPAC.
