Sexual Misconduct Policy and Procedures
Johns Hopkins University (JHU) is committed to promoting a safe and supportive environment for each and every member of our community. If you have experienced sexual misconduct, we encourage you to reach out for support and medical care. We are available to assist you if you would like to file a report with JHU and/or local law enforcement. The JHU complete Sexual Misconduct Policy and Procedures can be found here.
