Ontario Tech is committed to fostering a campus community where everyone feels safe, respected and supported.

October 5, 2026

Creating a culture of safety and consent is a shared responsibility. This includes looking out for one another, understanding and respecting boundaries, speaking up when something doesn’t feel right, and knowing where to turn when support is needed.

If you have experienced sexual violence, are supporting someone who has, or are looking for information about consent, reporting options or available resources, confidential support is available. You can choose the type of support that feels right for you, and accessing support does not require you to make a formal report.

Support and resources

• Sexual Violence Support and Education: Find information about support services, consent, education and resources available to Ontario Tech students.

• Human Rights Office: Ontario Tech’s Gender-Based Violence Specialist provides confidential, non-judgmental and student-led support, including help understanding your options, accessing university or community resources, considering safety or academic accommodations, and reporting an incident if you choose to do so.

• Student Mental Health Services: Students who have experienced sexual violence can access confidential counselling and psychotherapy, referrals to community services, wellness supports and assistance co-ordinating other supports or accommodations.

• On- and off-campus services: Additional community-based and specialized supports are also available through Ontario Tech’s Sexual Violence Support and Education resources.

If you are concerned about yourself or someone else, you do not need to navigate it alone. Support is available, and you can decide what next steps—if any—are right for you.
