70% cases of sexual assaults go unreported<\/span><\/a>. The most common reasons for not reporting amongst college aged students were that they believed it was a personal matter, believed it was not important enough, did not want to get the perpetrator in trouble, and believed police would not or could not do anything to help.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to <\/span>RAINN<\/span><\/a>, 13% of all students experience rape or sexual assault, females\u00a0aged 18-24 are at an elevated risk for sexual assault, and male college students (18-24yr) are 78% more likely than non-students to be a victim of sexual assault.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At our clinic, we have a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) who has years of experience of working with college-aged victims at WSU and is specifically trained to help those who have been assaulted. SANE nurses are trauma informed and specially trained in the medical, psychological, and forensic examination of a sexual assault victim.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During a SANE exam, they will do an evidentiary exam where physical evidence of the sexual assault is collected and documented. You can also get treatment for\u00a0STIs and\/or pregnancy testing or prevention.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
