Sierra College is committed to creating an inclusive and supportive learning and working environment for all members of the campus community. Campus safety is our top priority, and we take all reports of concerning behavior seriously to protect everyone’s health and well-being.
Sierra College depends on our community of students and employees to identify and report behaviors of concern so the college can provide the appropriate support services and resources to those who have been affected. If you see something, say, and do something about it – request a referral for support, or report any concerning behavior or suspicious activity using the forms below.
Please use the following forms to request support or report concerning or suspicious behavior. Share only what you are comfortable sharing and, in some cases, you may submit your concerns anonymously.
The CARE Team serves as a coordinated resource for students experiencing challenges related to personal well-being, which can include mental and emotional health struggles, complex personal issues, or general distress.
Students may use this form to refer themselves or another student to be connected with the CARE Team.
Title IX incidents include sex or gender-based discrimination, including sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking, sexual assault, or non-consensual sexual interactions.
Students may always report to the Sierra College Title IX Office with questions or to make a report, but before making a report, students have a right to request free confidential campus advocate support to learn about resources, support and reporting options.
Sierra College Title IX Campus Advocates provide free and confidential advocacy and support services to students who have experienced sex, or gender-based discrimination, including sexual harassment, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking, sexual assault, or non-consensual sexual interactions.
