April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month!

During the month of April, in partnership with the Title IX office and other campus and community partners, we highlight the many resources and services to support students who want to get more involved in sexual violence prevention efforts on campus, who want to create a community that respects and supports survivors, and how to safely and compassionately support someone who has experienced sexual violence. Join us at one of the many activities that we have planned this month!

Group Therapy: Tales Yet Told
A 6-8 session therapeutic gaming group where students come together to tell stories, build worlds, and connect through tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons.Each session invites creativity, collaboration, and reflection as party members navigate imaginary adventures that can touch on real-world themes such as how we strengthen our sense of identity, connection, and resilience in the face of difficult and painful times of our lives. Sessions are guided, synergistic, and inclusive of player's beliefs, values, and ideas. The group provides a supportive space to explore personal growth and meaning through shared storytelling. No experience with tabletop gaming is needed—just curiosity, openness, and a willingness to play.
