One of the best things about attending San Diego City College, Mesa College, Miramar College, and the College of Continuing Education is our strong sense of community and our commitment in providing an accessible and safe learning environment for everyone. Being a part of the community comes with a shared responsibility for the health and welfare of your fellow students, staff, and faculty at all our campuses. This includes being aware and implementing prevention techniques to identify and respond to sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating violence, and stalking on college campuses.
The San Diego Community College District acknowledges the importance of training on gender equity, sexual harassment and violence prevention. Our online training includes an introduction to educational regulations and guidance including how to recognize, report, and prevent sexual assault and harassment, to ensure a working and learning environment free from gender-based discrimination.
It is possible that something you read/watch during this training may trigger an emotional response, whether or not you have experienced interpersonal violence yourself. Support resources can be found on the Get Help section of the Title IX page, or you can contact the Title IX Office directly at titleix@sdccd.edu. You can also get immediate support 24/7 via the national support hotline of the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN) at 1-800-656-4673 or access their online chat hotline at https://rainn.org.
