A Webinar for Survivors and Those Who Care for Them

When a report is made, the investigation process is designed to move forward with care, respect, and attention to the individual who reported. Trained investigators follow established practices intended to prioritize well-being, privacy, and fairness, while working within legal guidelines. The process may look different for each person and can take time, involving various steps or professionals along the way. Throughout, the goal is to handle the report thoughtfully and with sensitivity, while ensuring the individual’s voice is treated with seriousness, care and respect.
