With continued discussion of the Cornell University group sexual assault case, it’s important to recognize that this coverage can be triggering for sexual assault survivors.

Trauma can resurface in unexpected ways, bringing up difficult emotions, memories or thoughts. If you find yourself feeling triggered by what you’re seeing or hearing, it’s okay to acknowledge those emotions and step away.

If you or someone you know needs support, call 813-264-9961 between 8am-5pm for direct access to the Crisis Center's Sexual Assault Services, or 211 to connect with 24/7 support.
