abstract="Graduate students are uniquely vulnerable to sexual violence and harassment (SVSH) and largely marginalized in campus-based prevention and response efforts. <br><br>OBJECTIVE: This study is a preliminary investigation of graduate students' experiences with on-campus SVSH training and knowledge and utilization of SVSH resources. <br><br>METHODS: We conducted 21 in-depth interviews and 8 focus group discussions with 43 graduate students on three public university campuses in California. <br><br>RESULTS: Graduate students had limited knowledge of SVSH services, and mandatory SVSH training curricula was perceived to center around &quot;responsible employee&quot; duties rather than information about how to prevent or seek help for SVSH themselves. Graduate students had mixed experiences seeking SVSH-related assistance. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Graduate students should be prioritized in SVSH prevention and education efforts beyond required responsible employee training. Graduate students are invaluable to the everyday success of universities; accounting for their vulnerabilities in SVSH prevention and response is vital for campus communities everywhere.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
