    Interpersonal Violence Support

    If you or someone you know needs help after an interpersonal violence incident, including sexual assault, relationship violence, stalking or harassment, you/they might feel overwhelmed or confused about what to do. Sexual Assault and Violence Intervention & Prevention (SAVIP) serves as a confidential resource to provide advocacy services and connect you with campus and community partners to help you determine your next steps. We're here to help.

    Get the Help You Need

    Interpersonal Violence is never the survivor's fault. The University of South Carolina strives to prevent interpersonal violence and support anyone who has been subjected to or impacted by it. SAVIP offers services for survivors and those who are helping to support a victim/survivor of interpersonal violence.

    You can get connected to our services by calling our 24/7 Hotline at 803-777-8248 or stopping by the Center for Health & Well-Being during our business hours.
