Welcome
to CASA:
The Committee Against Sexual Assault
This website was
created by CASA – the Committee Against Sexual
Assault. CASA
works with the Counseling Center, Health Center,
and the offices of Wellness Education, Residence
Life, and Dean of Students to educate the
Wentworth community with important information
about sexual assault and rape.
This website has important information
about what to do after a sexual assault, including
healthcare and legal options, common emotional
responses, and on and off-campus resources. We
also offer strategies for maximizing personal
safety. It is our hope that this website will
serve as a useful guide both for students who have
experienced a sexual assault as well as for
friends, family, faculty, staff.
