What is K(NO)W More?
SUPPORT AND RESOURCES FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT, DOMESTIC AND DATING VIOLENCE, AND STALKING
Northeastern Illinois University has built a multi-disciplinary collaborative comprised of University staff, faculty, and students from all campus locations and key local community partners which together function as a Coordinated Community Response Team known as the K(NO)W More Team. The K(NO)W More team is a robust partnership committed to providing significant support and resources to those impacted by sexual violence, including sexual assault, dating and domestic violence, and stalking.
The K(NO)W More campaign is dedicated to ending sexual violence by increasing awareness inspiring action and fueling culture change. The K(NO)W More team is committed to ensuring that individuals who have experienced sexual violence are treated respectfully and listened to carefully. It is well-documented that individuals in underrepresented groups are impacted by sexual violence at a higher rate than their peers. This includes people of color, veterans, members of the LGBTQ+ community, undocumented students, indigenous women, and persons with disabilities.
The K(NO)W More Team and the Title IX Office at Northeastern collaborate regularly on various strategies to promote an environment free of sexual violence. We believe that together we can end sexual violence. For information on sexual harassment or gender-based harassment/discrimination, please see the Title IX page.
Note that the K(NO)W More campaign is supported by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), awarding NEIU with Grant No. 15JOVW-21-GG-01051-CAMP.
