UCLA CARE Program

UCLA CARE Program Location: Murphy A223 CARE is a confidential place for survivors of s*xual assault, dating and domestic violence, and stalking.

The Campus Assault Resources & Education (CARE) Office is a confidential place for survivors of s*xual assault, dating and domestic violence, and stalking to receive free consultation and supportive services. Our CARE Advocates offer free consultation and supportive services to UCLA students, staff, and faculty. You can get help without formally reporting an assault or requesting formal treatment. In addition to advocacy, CARE also offers alternative healing workshops to survivors, including yoga, dance, drumming, journaling, and art. CARE also works to raise awareness and provides prevention education to the campus community using an intersectional, anti-oppression framework.
