Intimate partner and sexual violence (IPV/SV) are highly prevalent on college campuses, impacting student health and educational attainment. Campus health centers are a vital component of campus-wide efforts to prevent and respond to IPV/SV. Though survivors are often discouraged from reporting or discussing their experiences through traditional pathways, health care providers on campuses are in a unique position to offer support, as well as to provide universal education about healthy relationships and how violence can affect health and academic performance. This session will provide tools and resources for campus health center staff and administrators to address (IPV/SV) in their clinical practice, as well as engage in a range of campus-wide efforts. Presenters will outline best practices for implementing a comprehensive IPV/SV protocol that includes staff training, routine assessment in clinical encounters, student outreach, and partnership with other campus departments and community-based victim services providers.
