Whatever happened ...

However it happened ...

Whenever it happened...

You DO NOT have to deal with it ALONE!

The purpose of Students Advocating for Everyone (SAFE) is a peer education group specializing in issues related to sexual violence and relationship violence. SAFE members also work to educate the student body and community about sexual assault, gender communication, relationship violence and other important issues that affect the campus community.

SAFE also provides preventive programming on the topics of sexual assault, dating violence and sexual harassment. Programs are also available in self-defense and other related topics. 

SAFE is affiliated with the Dr. Margaret Launius Women’s Center at Mansfield University and with HAVEN of Tioga County.

Mission Statement

The Dr. Margaret Launius Women's Center of Mansfield University is dedicated to fostering a campus climate that promotes gender equality and mutual respect among all members of the campus and surrounding communities. We accomplish this by subscribing to Mansfield University's Creed and focusing on the four core values: Character, Scholarship, Culture, and Service.


Vision Statement

To have a Women's Center that functions within the University as a resource for education, advocacy, and involvement toward gender justice and women's issues, and that provides a safe and generative space for all students.  To integrate the Center and its core values and goals into student life through active student, staff, and faculty engagement and participation. 

Values Statement

Mansfield University's core values set the foundation for the atmosphere of the Women's Center space and all Women's Center activities:

  • Character: We promote an environment that treats all students, faculty, staff, and community members with dignity and respect.
  • Scholarship: We strive to help students connect their academic learning and life experiences to empowering action.
  • Culture: We are committed to equality for all genders and value diverse contributions to the Women's Center.
  • Service: We are dedicated to fostering partnerships and building networks with on and off campus organizations, the academic community, and other University constituents, through providing information, programs, and outreach opportunities.
