Carolina Community Academy: Medical Support




It can be helpful to seek medical care from confidential resources to address health concerns, preserve evidence, or explore options and resources after incidents of sexual harassment, sexual assault, interpersonal violence (relationship violence), and/or sexual exploitation.

Some medical treatment options are most effective within 72 hours of an assault, including injury treatment and HIV prophylaxis. Other options, including forensic evidence collection and emergency contraception, can still be effective up to 5 days after an assault. An individual can choose the type of care they receive and can skip or stop any part of the exam or evidence collection. To learn more about evidence collection, visit RAINN’S website.

Resources provided are not an exhaustive list. Individuals can learn more about their specific options by contacting any of the resources listed.
