The following template was developed in the Summer of 2020 by an alliance of students at several UC campuses (UC Survivors + Allies) in collaboration with UC staff, faculty, and student victim-survivors who have personal experience with the Title IX process. In recognition of instructors’ need for space in their syllabi, we are including a longer and shorter version conveying identical messages.

Violence and Discrimination Resources

UCLA prohibits gender discrimination, sexual harassment, domestic and dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. If you have experienced any of these, there are a variety of campus resources to assist you, including a confidential hotline where you can talk to someone 24/7: (310) 825-0768.

Title IX is a federal civil rights law in the United States of America that was passed as part (Title IX) of the Education Amendments of 1972. Therefore international students have access to the same services at the Title IX office as non-international students.

Please note that faculty and TAs are responsible employees, which means faculty, TAs, and other UC employees are required under the UC Policy on Sexual Violence and Sexual Harassment to inform the Title IX Coordinator—a non-confidential resource —should they become aware that you or any other student has experienced sexual violence or gender discrimination.
