Sexual Violence Prevention & Support Centre
The Sexual Violence Prevention & Support Centre supports students, staff, and faculty at the University of Toronto who have been affected by sexual violence or sexual harassment.
Through confidential, non-judgmental, client-centred services (including appointments and drop-in programs), we’re here to help U of T community members understand and access various support options related to sexual violence prevention and response. We assist in navigating counselling resources, medical services, academic or workplace accommodations, financial aid, and legal help.

We’re here to help.
The SVPS Centre works towards a campus where all U of T community members can study, work, and live free from sexual violence.
We support by listening, believing you, explaining your options, connecting you with helpful resources, and coordinating accommodations that feel right for your situation. In addition, we facilitate programming, training, and workshops to help build and reinforce a caring culture of consent in our community.
