Sexual Misconduct Resources

What to Do

The Sexual Misconduct Response website is the University's central informational resource. If you are a student and have been subject to sexual misconduct of any kind—or if you simply have questions or concerns—you may contact Yale's Sexual Harassment and Assault Response & Education Center (SHARE). Faculty, students, staff, and trainees may contact any member of the YSM Grievance Board on Sexual Misconduct for guidance or to lodge an informal complaint. The University-Wide Committee on Sexual Misconduct is an alternate venue for information and informal complaints and is the only venue for formal complaints.
