The S.A.F.E. Mission The Sexual Assualt Free Environment (SAFE) program educates the ODU community on issues of relationship and sexual violence, provides advocacy and support for survivors, and empowers everyone on campus to recognize and stop abuse and sexual assault. Sexual assault is a broad term that encompasses any forcible sexual activity that occurs without the victim's consent. It is a crime of violence, power and control; and it is one of the most under reported crimes in the United States. Nationally, a person is sexually assaulted every 2-3 minutes.
In North American colleges, about 1:4 women have been the victim of rape or an attempted rape. 15% of male college students
have attempted intercourse with an unwilling female at least once. Old Dominion University has recognized this reality and
has devoted staff and other resources to ensure the most appropriate and sensitive response to members of our campus community
who experience sexual assault. Reporting a Sexual Assault IncidentFaculty & Staff: Sexual Assault Incident Report (SAIR) Form Students: Contact the S.A.F.E.
