    Ìý
  2. Electronic/Anonymous reporting:Ìý Sex-BasedÌýMisconduct / Title IX Complaint Form

Responsive ProceduresÌý Ìý
Upon receipt of a report, the Title IX Coordinator will: analyze the information to determine the appropriate method for processing it; promptly contact the complainant to discuss the availability of supportive measures (with or without filing a formal complaint); and explain to the complainant the process for filing a formal complaint.

A victim may request, and IECC will evaluate, interim protective measures to address victim safety, including obtaining and enforcing a no-contact order or order of protection. IECC does not issue such orders, but victims can contact local law enforcement agencies to secure a no-contact order or order of protection.

Pursuant to Policy, IECC will investigate formal complaints of sex-based misconduct. A prompt, fair, and thorough investigation will be coordinated by the Title IX Coordinator. The victim/complainant and respondent(s) will be afforded the opportunity to present information and witnesses, and IECC will make a good faith effort to contact and interview any witnesses identified by the parties, including those no longer at IECC. IECC strictly prohibits retaliation against the complainant, respondent, or other witnesses.

Upon conclusion of the investigation, the Title IX or Deputy Title IX Coordinator will notify the victim/complainant of the determination and of any remedies offered or provided by IECC to the victim and any disciplinary sanctions on the respondent(s) that directly relate to the victim/complainant.Ìý A victim/complainant and a student respondent may utilize the appeal process provided by Policy upon conclusion of the investigation.
