Campus Safety Is Here for You—24/7

Looking Out for Yourself & Others

Speak Up When Something Isn’t Right

If you experience or witness discrimination, harassment, bias, or any form of sexual misconduct, including sexual assault, dating or domestic violence, stalking, or exploitation, you are encouraged to take action. 

Widener does not tolerate these behaviors, and there are clear ways to report concerns and access support. Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or someone else, you’ll find options that prioritize your safety, privacy, and well-being.

Support Starts with Noticing

Personal safety isn’t always about emergencies—sometimes it’s recognizing when something feels off and knowing where to turn. The CARE Team helps you navigate concerns early and connect with the right support, whether for yourself or someone else.
