This form is intended to report incidents of harassment or request support from advocates. At this time, our advocates are focused on providing support and helping to document (at the discretion of the person reporting) any incidents that occur. We do not currently have policies in place for penalizing the people reported as offenders in these reports, but we are working to develop these policies for future meetings.
You can find the existing policy of the Southern Sociological Society concerning harassment here
Transparency: These reports go to Jeannette Wade, the Chair of the Antiharassment Taskforce. The only conditions under which this information would be shared with anyone else include:
- If the person reporting requests an advocate, the information from the report will be shared with the advocate.
- If the person reporting requests the report be sent to SSS Leadership, the information from the report will be sent to the Executive Officer and President.
- We will only be widely sharing the number of reports and types of incidents that occur, all other information will remain confidential. This information will be used to make policy recommendations and improvements for SSS.
