Abstract: 

The prevailing model for victimization response on most college campuses is to designate a small number of people who are well trained in sexual assault victim’s services and to direct all victims and others on campus who need assistance to those well trained individuals. Often, they are accessible 24/7 via cellular telephones to provide assistance to all who call. The problem is on so many campuses very few people ever call. This article discusses whether this model is effective and what other options there are to address this issue.
