Sexual violence on campus has been identified as a key area of focus for post-secondary institutions (PSI) nationally and in New Brunswick (NB). Through collaboration and partnership, SVNB works to address issues related to sexual violence at post-secondary institutions across the province. 

We provide education, awareness campaigns, and consultation services for PSIs in NB.

Fredericton Tri-Campus Sexual Violence Awareness Initiatives

The prevention of sexual violence can only happen when we address the cultural foundations of privilege and oppression in our communities. Our approach to sexual violence prevention strives to draw attention to the ways our culture normalizes gender-based violence and build confidence in the campus community to make changes in their personal lives.

Seeking support after a sexual assault can be difficult. Simply present this disclosure card at the reception of either the Student Health Centre or Counselling Services at your institution. You will not have to explain why you are there and you will be connected with an appropriate professional right away. 

You can also book your own appointment by emailing the Campus Sexual Assault Support Advocates at csasa@svnb.ca.
