The Advocates for Survivors of Sexual Violence
The Advocates for Survivors of Sexual Violence provide support and referral for student survivors of sexual violence, intimate partner violence, and stalking at Moravian University and Lancaster Theological Seminary. The Advocate team consists of male and female volunteer faculty and staff members. Female advocates can be reached 24 hours a day during the academic year by calling or texting 484-764-9242. Male advocates can be requested. If the survivor is a part of the LGBTQIA+ community, they may request specific support. Survivors have the option to remain anonymous when contacting the Advocate hotline.
