A suggestion:
Develop and heavily advertise a confidential help number that people
can call. This number should NOT be the Campus Police; nobody wants
that call recorded, and nobody feels comfortable calling police from
that sort of situation anyhow, no matter how many promises they make.
Think Nightline-like levels of confidentiality, staffed with people
trained to talk people through first-response, and to arrange for
confidential medical transport.
Again, this absolutely can't involve police.
