Counseling and Confidential Resources
Confidential resources are people who are not required to file a report with the university if they are told about instances of sexual misconduct. They can help you file a report down the line, but only if you give them permission to do so.
For any confidential support and/or counseling, please contact Amy Johndro, Gender Violence Intervention Coordinator (GVIC). Students can leave her a voicemail at 984-569-0592 or send an email to gvicoordinator@duke.edu. You will be contacted within 24 hours, or sooner when necessary.
Students can also receive confidential counseling through Blue Devils Care, a partnership with TimelyMD to provide 24-hour virtual counseling services for Duke students. Your first 12 sessions are automatically covered by the university.
Reporting Gender Violence or Sexual Misconduct
You may report an incident for yourself or someone else by submitting an Incident Report (a non-anonymous option) or a DukeReach Care Report (an anonymous option). Filing a report does not automatically trigger a formal conduct process and/or law enforcement investigation. It simply means that someone from the Office of Student Conduct & Community Standards will contact you to let you know what your options are.
For non-confidential help with reporting an incident or navigating Duke’s conduct processes, please contact Victoria Krebs at victoria.krebs@duke.edu, or stop by 313 Crowell.
Responsible Employees
Most Duke employees – including professors, teaching assistants, RAs, and other staff – are Responsible Employees. This means they are non-confidential, and if you tell them about an incident of sexual misconduct, they must make a report to the university. Again: this report does not automatically trigger a formal conduct process and/or law enforcement investigation. You will be presented with options on how you would like to proceed.
Prevention and Education
For non-confidential questions about prevention resources, education, and/or student involvement, please contact April-Autumn Jenkins (april.jenkins@duke.edu), Bailey Bogle (bailey.bogle@duke.edu), or Corey Pilson (corey.pilson@duke.edu).
