Health & Safety
Since our main campus in Storrs is essentially its own town, UConn has its own Division of University Safety. Our own police and fire departments, as well as the Office of Emergency Management, ensure a safe and secure campus for all of our students.
In the event of an emergency, our campus-wide Alert Notification System informs the community of the situation, its severity, and the appropriate actions to take. All students are encouraged to register their cell phones with our system.
Student Health Services
Primary medical care, a women’s clinic, nutrition services, counseling and mental health services, physical therapy, and more are offered through Student Health Services on campus.
Office for Inclusion and Civil Rights
The University of Connecticut is committed to creating and maintaining a safe and supportive campus environment. The Office for Inclusion and Civil Rights (OICR) ensures our commitment to fostering equitable and inclusive working and learning environments by:
• Advocating for access and equity across the University
• Supporting visitors and the University community to ensure full participation for people with disabilities
• Ensuring the University responds appropriately to reports of discrimination based on sex (gender) and sexual misconduct
Visit UConn’s Title IX website to learn about resources and reporting options for UConn community members impacted by identity-based discrimination, sexual assault, sexual harassment, sexual exploitation, stalking, and/or intimate partner violence.
Annual Security and Fire Safety Report
Every year, University of Connecticut releases the Annual Security and Fire Report to the University community. Statistics are gathered at the Storrs campus and all the regional campuses that are part of the University. The most current Annual Security and Fire Safety Report can be viewed online, and written copies of this report may be obtained at the Division of University Safety located at 126 North Eagleville Road, Storrs, CT 06269.
