Why CARE?

We believe interpersonal violence is rooted in systems of oppression and harm disproportionately impacts marginalized communities. We aim to support Tufts students of all identities, backgrounds, nationalities, citizenships, races, ethnicities, abilities, socioeconomic statuses, religions, genders, bodies, and sexual orientations.

Students can come to CARE to talk about anything that happens at the intersection of their social and sexual lives. This could include:

  • Their sexual/reproductive health
  • How to ask for consent
  • An assault they experienced before or during their time at Tufts
  • Wanting to have sex for the first time
  • Setting or respecting personal boundaries
  • A partner using their gender identity/sexuality/immigration status against them
  • Supporting a friend or partner who has experienced sexual violence
  • An Office of Equal Opportunity adjudication process (complainant or respondent)
  • How to incorporate sex toys into their personal or partnered sex life
  • Deciding whether something that happened to them was sexual violence
  • Navigating online dating and/or hookup culture
  • Someone who is making them uncomfortable/scared or won’t leave them alone
  • Having potentially harmed a sexual/romantic partner
