Colleges and universities in Louisiana can take several proactive steps, which include developing and enforcing clear policies for reporting and addressing sexual abuse and misconduct. They can provide students with education and training on consent, boundaries, and respectful behavior. Campuses should offer comprehensive support services, including counseling and medical assistance for sex abuse survivors, and implement anonymous reporting systems to encourage survivors to come forward without fear of retaliation. They should take immediate action to investigate and address allegations, including cooperating with law enforcement when necessary.
