THE SAC STATE VIOLENCE & SEXUAL ASSAULT SUPPORT SERVICES PROGRAM MOVES TO THE STUDENT HEALTH CENTER
The Violence and Sexual Assault Support Services Program, previously housed in the Women’s Resource Center, is relocating to the Sac State Student Health Center. The effective date of the move will be February 8, 2008, with the program continuing to be coordinated by Jessica Heskin. To access services of the victim advocate, please call 278-3799 or drop by our new location in the Student Health Center, Room 125.
The Violence & Sexual Assault Support Services program was established to create awareness, to coordinate and centralize services for victims of sexual assault, intimate partner violence, stalking or hate crimes, and to educate the university community. The mission of the program, as well as existing services, will remain the same. We will continue to provide direct advocacy services for victims of these crimes, as well as provide educational opportunities for the campus community.
The Women’s Resource Center will remain in Library 1010. Please stop by and check out the events scheduled for Women’s History Month.
For more information about the program, please contact Jessica Heskin at (916) 278-3799 or email her at heskin@csus.edu.  |
