Talk to a Confidential Advocate
The confidential advocate from the Advocacy Center of Winona offers free and confidential services to WSU students.
This means that what you choose to share and discuss with the confidential advocate, stays with them.
Talk about Options
As a confidential resource on campus, they can help you explore your options without or before making an official report.
When you meet with the advocate, they will:
- listen without judgment.
- explain all the options available to you.
- help you understand the potential outcomes of each option.
After you decide which option is best for you, the confidential advocate will provide guidance, resources, and referrals.
