The mission of the Office of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response is to promote the compassionate and just treatment of student survivors, their friends, and significant others, foster collaborative relationships between campus and community systems, and affect attitudinal and behavioral changes on campus as we work toward the elimination of sexual violence against all people.
The Office of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (OSAPR) was
established in 2003 to provide confidential support, information
and resource referrals to survivors of sexual violence. We strive
to provide empathic, supportive services to students of the College
who have experienced sexual assault. Knowing that some students
will prefer to seek services outside of Harvard’s campus, OSAPR
works to provide easy linkages to off-campus resources as well as
those offered within the University.
You can call us 24 hours a day (617-495-9100) for support,
information and resources. We are trained to listen and help,
confidentially. You can also reach staff members by emailing or
stopping by our office at Holyoke Center 731 from 9 am to 5
pm, Monday through Friday. We’re here to listen, help, and work for
change.
