If you are currently in an emergency situation and need immediate help, call:
Emmanuel Campus Safety Emergency Line: 617-735-9888
Boston Police Emergency: 911
Boston Sexual Assault Unit: 617-343-4400
If an incident occurs, the College encourages victims to report the incident immediately and seek both police and medical assistance. Seeking police or medical assistance does not obligate an individual to make a complaint or take any further action, but the decision to seek medical help and gather evidence allows complainants to preserve the full range of available options. The College will assist any community member to get to a safe place, provide transportation for medical help and, if requested, contact law enforcement. For 24/7 help, contact Campus Safety, or contact the Title IX Coordinator during normal College hours (M-F 8:30-4:30) at 617-735-9991.
Medical Treatment
You may seek medical care with or without reporting the crime to the police. Go to the nearest hospital emergency room for treatment of injuries, prevention of sexually transmitted diseases and crisis intervention. Physical evidence for medical/legal services can also be collected at this time. Evidence can be collected within five days of the assault.
SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner) are certified nurses who are specifically trained to perform exams and collect forensic evidence from sexual assault survivors. You may receive free care and do not have to use your insurance. Many hospitals are SANE sites, including those in close proximity to Emmanuel
