Title IX


Reporting an Incident

Reporting an incident does not:

  • Obligate the victim to take any action against the other party;

  • Subject the victim to inappropriate scrutiny or judgment by the person receiving the report; or

  • Suggest in any way that the victim is at fault for the crime or violation, or should have acted in a different manner to avoid the crime or violation.

Reporting an incident does:

  • Ensure that the victim has knowledge of and access to supportive measures including professional, confidential counseling from a counselor specifically trained in the areas of sexual assault, relationship violence, or stalking;

  • Provide the opportunity for collection of evidence critical to a prosecution, which cannot be obtained later;

  • Ensure that the victim has knowledge of and access to professional, confidential counseling from a counselor specifically trained in the areas of sexual assault, relationship violence, or stalking.

At ACPHS, all employees (including Resident Assistants or RAs) are considered Mandatory Reporters. Mandatory Reporters are required to report all details of an incident of sexual misconduct, including the identity of the perpetrator and the victim, the date and location of the incident, and details regarding the incident - if known - for purposes of initiation of an investigation and appropriate action.
