Support and Resources for Complainants
Georgetown has resources in place to support members of the University community who have experienced or wish to report sexual misconduct, including medical care, safety assistance, confidential counseling, and Title IX interim supportive measures. Additionally, off-campus resources are available for the University community. All resources may also be found on the Sexual Misconduct Reference Guide. For GU-Q students, please use this guide.
