Title IX – Sexual Misconduct Resources

Private Reporting 

These reporting resources are required to report all known details to the Title IX Coordinator, including names, dates, times, and locations. Information contained in the report is only shared on a need-to-know basis with those who are directly involved in providing supportive or protective services, or those involved with addressing the incident:

• Title IX Coordinator 
• You can report directly to the Title IX Coordinator by using the Discrimination, Harassment, and Sexual Misconduct Reporting Form 
  • The reporting form is the preferred and primary method for receiving reports. Using this form ensures that the Title IX Coordinator has the information necessary to make informed decisions regarding the health and safety of impacted individuals and our Widener Community. However, if for some reason you are unable to submit the report using the reporting form above, please email TitleIX@widener.edu  or report to Campus Safety.
