"I was sexually molested by my stepfather throughout my childhood, and now that I'm finally away from home, I want to talk about it with someone. I'm not quite ready to share this aspect of my life with my friends, because I'm worried that they might judge me. I wouldn't know how to explain myself to them. I want to talk with someone more objective, who will give me the space I need to think through things, and figure out my emotions. Could I talk to someone at SCRS?"
WHAT SCRS CAN DO:
- provide you with a safe space in which to talk about the abuse
- help you to find other forms of support (such as support groups for survivors of rape or childhood sexual abuse), both at the University and in the community.
DISCLAIMER: None of the vignettes are based on actual University of Chicago students or
specific incidents. The vignettes suggest possible scenarios but do not
represent any particular University students. The SCRS maintains a strict
confidentiality policy that is outlined our Policies section.
