Procedures for Victims of Sex- and Gender-Based Violence or Harassment

If you are in immediate danger, call 9-1-1.

Get to a place of safety as soon as you can.

Contact someone you trust to be with you and support you. 快活app鈥檚 Center for Advocacy, Prevention and Empowerment (CAPE), 303.871.3853 or CAPE@du.edu, provides free and confidential support, assistance, resources, and options.

Preserve any physical evidence. Preserving evidence is important because evidence can be key in identifying the perpetrator in a gender-based violence case, especially those in which the offender is a stranger, may assist in proving the alleged criminal offense occurred, and may be helpful in obtaining a protection order. Document physical signs of injury with photographs as bruising can fade between the time the incident took place to when it is investigated. Document any destruction to property with photographs. Any unwanted or repeated electronic communications should be saved or captured with as screenshot.

  • Preserving sexual assault evidence. In an instance of sexual assault, physical evidence should be collected immediately, ideally within the first 24 hours. A medical sexual assault forensic exam by a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) may be completed up to five days after a sexual assault to collect evidence in case the victim decides to report the assault at a later date. Sexual assault forensic evidence is an integral part of a law enforcement investigation that can build a strong case and so it is important to preserve evidence in case the decision is made to take legal action or press charges. Sexual assault physical evidence must be collected in a timely manner by a certified medical facility. Do not shower/bathe, comb your hair, change clothes, smoke, brush your teeth, eat/drink, wash or use the toilet (if possible 鈥 the hospital will take a urine sample when you arrive). Do not wash clothes or clean the bed/linens area or other items. Place clothing, bedding, or anything of evidentiary value during the assault, in a paper bag.
  • Preserving dating and domestic violence evidence. Preserving evidence may be necessary to prove criminal domestic or dating violence, or in obtaining a protection order. Take photographs of injuries and damage. If victims do not opt for forensic evidence collection, health care providers can still treat injuries. Examples of other types of evidence to preserve can be threatening emails or phone messages, text messages, social media, messages or postings, computer screenshots, medical records, records of police responses to the home, witnesses, or any other form of evidence that would be helpful. Make sure information documented is kept in a safe location where the partner cannot find it, as it may cause further risk if they do.
  • Preserving stalking evidence. Documentation is necessary. Keep a record of the details or call the police to have the incident documented by police. Victims of stalking should save evidence such as any letters, notes, emails, phone calls, videos, photos, texts, social media postings, computer screenshots, voicemails, gifts, or any other form of evidence that would be helpful.

Get medical attention as soon as possible. A medical provider can document injuries and offer needed treatment. Medication to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections/diseases is available. Trained medical staff may also assist you in collecting and preserving evidence and connecting you to survivor advocacy supports or to law enforcement. You do not need to report to law enforcement to access medical care.听

  • 快活app is committed to providing students physical and emotional support following a sexual assault. After experiencing a sexual assault, you have the choice to have a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) forensic exam. 听A SANE forensic exam can be performed up to five days after an assault. 听Choosing to have a SANE forensic exam does not require an individual to formally report or participate in a law enforcement investigation.听
  • A SANE forensic exam is performed by a specially trained registered nurse. 听The exam is tailored to provide survivors of sexual assault with trauma-informed medical treatment, and to collect forensic evidence in the event a survivor chooses to report to Law Enforcement. 听Typical exams last anywhere from 2-6 hours. 听If you choose to have an exam, you have the right to decline any part of the exam and to go at a pace that feels comfortable to you. 听Standard exams include:
    • A complete discussion about medical history
    • Thorough head to toe physical examination
    • Evidence collection
    • Photographs of any injuries sustained during an assault
    • Details about the assault to better inform evidence collection and medical treatment
    • Treatment for possible sexually transmitted infections
    • Pregnancy prevention, if applicable

In partnership with Denver Health, the Health and Counseling Center at 快活app is able to offer a SANE forensic exam on campus, Monday-Friday between the hours of 8am-2pm.听

The Health and Counseling鈥檚 Center for Advocacy, Prevention and Empowerment (CAPE) can accompany you and provide confidential support and guidance. CAPE can help explain the process and support any 快活app community member with participating in the SANE process and help arrange for transportation to the hospital or accompany the survivor to the HCC for a SANE forensic exam. During normal business hours, contact CAPE at 303-871-3853. After-Hours contact the Counselor on Call at 303-871-2205. Additional contact methods include: cape@du.edu or at their website: /health-and-counseling-center/cape/index.html.听

You can report an instance of gender-based violence to:

  • 快活app鈥檚 Department of Campus Safety (303.871.3000 or 1-3000)
  • 快活app鈥檚 Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX (303.871.7016 or 1.7016)

  • The Counselor on Call (After normal business hours at 303.871.2205 or 1-2205)
  • Any Campus Security Authority at 快活app
  • Denver Police Department or other appropriate law enforcement agency. (As a 快活app student, faculty or staff member, it is your right and decision to choose, or decline, to report the incident to law enforcement authorities)

Alcohol and Drug Amnesty: 快活app generally will not pursue disciplinary action against a student who makes a good faith report to a 快活app official, contacts emergency services, or who participates as a Party or Witness in the grievance process related to Prohibited Conduct, for personal consumption of alcohol or other drugs that would otherwise be a violation of the Honor Code, provided the misconduct did not endanger the health or safety of others. 快活app may, however, engage in an assessment or educational discussion or pursue other non-disciplinary options regarding alcohol or other drug use. 快活app also provides Medical Amnesty as set forth in the Honor Code.

You have the right to explore a Civil Order of Protection through the courts. Students, faculty, and staff may request a temporary or permanent restraining order if there has been harm, the threat of harm or an act of violence.听

Additional contact methods include: cape@du.edu or at their website: /health-and-counseling-center/cape/index.html'

If a protective order is issued, you may elect to provide the 快活app Department of Campus Safety with a copy of the order, so the information is on file in case the order is violated on any 快活app owned and controlled property.

If the violation is in progress, call 9-1-1 and the appropriate law enforcement authority will respond. The Department of Campus Safety can contact the Denver Police Department to respond to violations of court issued protective orders that occur on the main campus and in 快活app owned or controlled buildings within the Denver Police Department鈥檚 jurisdiction. If the student, faculty, or staff member holds a current court issued protective order, and that order is violated in another jurisdiction, the student, faculty, or staff member will need to call the law enforcement agency that serves the location in which the violation occurred.

You have the right to explore a no contact order through the University. Students, faculty, and staff who鈥檝e made an allegation of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking or other gendered harassment, may request a Mutual No Contact Order and/or Location Restriction Order, if the other party is affiliated with 快活app.听

A Mutual No Contact Order is a written directive for the identified parties to avoid all contact and/or communication with one another. Unless expressly stated otherwise in the Mutual No Contact Order, contact is defined as communicating in person, communicating through a third party, and communicating through all forms of written and/or electronic contact (including phone, email, texting, and social media). The Mutual No Contact Order may apply to other forms of contact, as 快活app deems appropriate under the circumstances.

A Location Restriction Order is a written directive for one or more identified parties not to enter a designated portion of 快活app Premises. The written Location Restriction Order will define the space to be avoided, which may include particular rooms, buildings, outdoor areas, events, or other spaces as described in the Location Restriction Order. The Location Restriction Order may also require a housing reassignment or reassignment to a different section of a course for one or multiple individuals identified in the Location Restriction Order.

All No Contact and Location Restriction Orders are considered mutual for all parties. No Contact Orders and Location Restriction Orders may be issued as an Emergency Order, Temporary Order, or Standing Order.

Although these Mutual No Contact Orders and Location Restriction Orders are not considered disciplinary in nature, failing to abide by the terms of the Mutual No Contact Order and Location Restriction Orders will constitute a violation of the Student Rights & Responsibilities Policies.

Mutual No Contact Orders and Location Restriction Orders can be requested through the following 快活app departments:

  • Department of Campus Safety (303.871.2334)
  • Student Rights and Responsibilities (303.871.2455)
  • Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX (303.871.7016)
  • CAPE (303.871.3853)
  • Or by completing the Request for No Contact Order Form:

A complete copy of the 快活app鈥檚 policies governing Mutual No Contact Orders which includes but is not limited to the legal options available to students, how to request information, how to file a report, the institutions responsibilities for honoring and complying with student鈥檚 requests, and what an impacted party can do to enforce an order of protection can be reviewed at the below 快活app website: .听

快活app Department of Campus Safety - Trespass Notification: If an allegation of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence or stalking is against a person not affiliated with 快活app, and the crime was committed against a 快活app community member or on campus or other 快活app controlled building or property, the Department of Campus Safety may be able to issue a Trespass Notification, banning the accused from all campus owned or controlled properties. If the Trespass Notification is violated, victim/survivors should report the violation to the Department of Campus Safety. The Department of Campus Safety will notify local law enforcement authorities to have the violator arrested.

Consider options for assistance, support, resources and on- and off-campus services. As a student, faculty, or staff victim/survivor of gender-based violence requests may be made to 快活app for supportive measures such as accommodations, and/or other reasonable assistance. After an incident of gender-based violence, 快活app will work with students, or faculty and staff to address any issues that may impact the student鈥檚 educational experience or the faculty and staff member鈥檚 work experience; including protective measures, such as financial aid assistance; immigration or visa, travel assistance; available on-campus housing changes and academic accommodations for students; or work accommodations for 快活app employees.听

快活app shall endeavor to comply with a student鈥檚 reasonable request for a living and/or academic situation change following an alleged sex offense. Supportive measures are available regardless of whether the victim/survivor chooses to share specific information about the incident, report the matter to Campus Safety or local law enforcement, or participate in the 快活app鈥檚 administrative process, and regardless of whether the offense occurred on or off campus. For more information, contact the following:

  • CAPE (confidential resource) at 303.871.3853. After-Hours contact the Counselor on Call at 303.871.2205. Additional contact methods include: cape@du.edu or at their website: 听

  • Department of Campus Safety at 303.871.3000.听

It is important that survivors of gender violence know they are not alone, and 快活app hopes survivors feel comfortable reaching out for the support they need. There are many options for seeking support, including: Campus Safety, the Center for Advocacy, Prevention and Empowerment (CAPE), a resident assistant, a resident director, the police, a friend, a rape crisis center, a hospital, a counselor or the Title IX Office or someone else you trust. You have a right to discuss these options without being required to select or participate in any of the available options.

Reporting Options

快活app encourages all individuals to seek assistance from a medical provider, as needed, and/or law enforcement immediately after an incident of gender-based violence, whether or not the individual plans to pursue criminal action. Preserving any physical evidence is very helpful for successful investigation, arrest, and prosecution of the perpetrator(s) and may be helpful in obtaining a protective order. A victim/survivor of gender-based violence has many reporting options. 快活app students, faculty, and staff members may, as a victim/survivor of gender-based violence, elect, or decline, to notify Campus Safety or local law enforcement. If the victim/survivor chooses to file a police report, 快活app can assist with the process. A victim/survivor may also choose to report the incident to the appropriate 快活app department, a 快活app faculty or staff member, or the individual may choose confidential and/or anonymous reporting options. Reporting options are provided in detail below. If you are unsure what to do or how to report, please consider the following reporting options.听

Reporting to Law Enforcement (All Students, Faculty, or Staff)听

If the incident occurred at properties owned or controlled by 快活app outside of the Denver Police Department鈥檚 jurisdiction, 快活app can assist in determining the jurisdictional boundary as well as with contact information for the appropriate law enforcement agency if requested. As a 快活app student or employee, it is your right and decision to choose to report or decline to report the incident to law enforcement authorities.

When a sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking or other harassment is committed, the first concern is your safety and well-being. 快活app recognizes the sensitive nature of these crimes and respects your right to privacy and choice.听

Protecting Victim Confidentiality

快活app recognizes the sensitive nature of gender-based violence (sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking) or discrimination or harassment, including sexual harassment. 快活app is committed to protecting the privacy of any individual who makes a report. Different officials and personnel are able to offer varying levels of privacy protection to victims. 快活app will protect the confidentiality of victims/survivors of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking and other gendered harassment in accordance with federal and state laws.听

  • Reports made to designated confidential on-campus resources may talk to victims without revealing any identifying information about them to anyone else at 快活app, including the Title IX Office or law enforcement entities without the victim鈥檚 consent. Except under certain limited circumstances (such as risk of imminent harm to the victim or others), victims can seek assistance and support from these counselors and advocates without triggering a 快活app or police investigation.听
  • Reports made to law enforcement. A victim who reports to the Denver Police Department may request to be treated as confidential, which means that the victim鈥檚 name and other identifying information will not appear in its public records.听
  • Reports made to the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX (Title IX Coordinator) seek to protect the privacy of all individuals throughout all phases of the complaint resolution process. While Title IX cannot guarantee confidentiality, disclosure of facts to parties and witnesses is limited to what is reasonably necessary to conduct a fair and thorough investigation, determine outcomes, or to deliver resources or supportive measures to the parties.听
  • Supportive Measures. 快活app will maintain as confidential any accommodation or supportive measures provided to parties, to the extent such confidentiality does not impair 快活app鈥檚 ability to provide the accommodation or supportive measures.听
  • Clery Act and Other Public Records. Publicly available record-keeping for purposes of Clery Act reporting and disclosures will be made without including personally identifying information about the victim. Also, 快活app鈥檚 Department of Campus Safety does not publish the name of crime victims as part of its Clery mandated reporting, nor does it keep identifiable information regarding victims in the daily crime and fire log or online.听

快活app Department of Campus Safety

快活app鈥檚 Department of Campus Safety maintains the privacy of individuals who report crimes to the Department in accordance with state and federal law. However, if a report of a sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence or stalking is reported to the Department of Campus Safety, even if the victim/survivor does not want action taken by the Department of Campus Safety, substantive information provided in the report will be shared with the Title IX Coordinator to allow the Title IX Coordinator to perform follow-up in accordance with Title IX mandates. Information concerning these types of incidents is also shared with the Office of Students Rights & Responsibilities who is required to provide institutional assistance and resources.听

A Department of Campus Safety report is considered a law enforcement record exempt from restrictions under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (鈥淔ERPA鈥). As such, the Department of Campus Safety report may be shared with law enforcement agencies upon request as part of an investigation. 快活app and Department of Campus Safety is a private university; therefore, requests under the Freedom of Information Act do not apply to 快活app. 快活app treats all records as proprietary.

The Daily Crime Log maintained by the Department of Campus Safety, does not disclose any personally identifying information that may identify a victim or disclose the location of a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking, in accordance with VAWA 40002(a)(20), which states:

鈥淭he term 鈥榩ersonally identifying information鈥 or 鈥榩ersonal information鈥 means individually identifying information for or about an individual including information likely to disclose the location of a victim of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, regardless of whether the information is encoded, encrypted, hashed, or otherwise protected, including:

  • A first and last name;
  • A home or other physical address;
  • Contact information (including a postal, email, or internet protocol address, or telephone or facsimile number);
  • A social security number, driver鈥檚 license number, passport number or student identification number; and
  • Any other information, including dates of birth, racial or ethnic background, or religious affiliation that would serve to identify any individual鈥

Reporting to the University (All Students, Faculty, or Staff)

快活app has procedures in place that strive to be sensitive to those who report gender-based violence and gender-based harassment or discrimination. 快活app will provide victims of gender-based violence and gender-based harassment or discrimination written notification of their rights and options.

This includes informing victims/survivors, in writing, about their right to file criminal charges, as well as the availability of counseling, health, mental health, victim advocacy, legal assistance, student financial aid and visa/immigration assistance and other services that can be found on and/or off campus. Information will also be given to the victim/survivor that pertains to supportive measures 快活app will provide to prevent contact between them and an accused party.听

快活app will provide written notification to the victim/survivor about their rights and options for available assistance in, and how to request changes to academic, living, transportation and working situations or other supportive measures, if the victim requests them and if they are reasonably available. 快活app is obligated to comply with a student鈥檚 reasonable request for a living and/or academic situation change following an alleged sex offense. Supportive measures will be provided regardless of whether the victim/survivor chooses to share specific information about the incident, report the matter to Campus Safety or local law enforcement, or participate in 快活app鈥檚 administrative process, and regardless of whether the offense occurred on or off campus.

Resources and Institutional Assistance

As a student, faculty, or staff victim/survivor of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking or harassment, you may request that 快活app provide assistance and/or accommodations. After an incident of gender- based violence (sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence or stalking) or discrimination or harassment, 快活app will work with students, or faculty and staff to address any issues that may impact the student鈥檚 educational experience or the faculty and staff member鈥檚 employment experience; including supportive measures, such as financial aid assistance; immigration or visa, travel assistance; available on-campus housing changes and academic accommodations for students; or work accommodations for 快活app employees and other assistance requested or needed.听

快活app shall endeavor to accommodate a student鈥檚 reasonable request for a living and/or academic situation change following gender-based violence. Supportive measures are provided regardless of whether the victim/survivor chooses to share specific information about the incident, report the matter to Campus Safety or local law enforcement, or participate in the university鈥檚 administrative process, and regardless of whether the offense occurred on or off campus.

Students and employees who report that they are victims/survivors of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking and the respondents to such proceedings have the right to:

  • Receive written notification of your rights and options, including but not limited to:
    • Existing campus and community medical, mental health, counseling and legal services, victim advocacy, visa and immigration and financial aid assistance.
    • Information about how 快活app will provide options and available assistance for academic, living, transportation and working situations and supportive measures.
    • The right to have an advocate.
  • Be informed of applicable reporting options and choices including the option to notify on or off-campus law enforcement or otherwise notify on or off-campus confidential resources.
  • Be free from pressure to make a criminal report and notified of your right to decline to notify law enforcement.
  • Be assisted by 快活app support staff in notifying law enforcement, if you choose to file a criminal report.
  • Have allegations of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking and other gendered harassment investigated and adjudicated by the appropriate campus, civil and criminal authorities, as applicable.
  • All complaints are presumed to be made in good faith, and all complainants have the right to be taken seriously.
  • A respondent is presumed not responsible for alleged prohibited conduct unless and until a determination regarding responsibility for prohibited conduct is made at the conclusion of the investigation.

Institutional Procedures for Reported Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault, and Stalking

Title IX Response to Reports of Gender-Based Violence, Discrimination and Harassment

快活app is committed to providing support and assistance to all members of our 快活app community who are impacted by discrimination, harassment, and gender-based violence. 快活app prohibits all forms of discrimination, harassment (including sexual harassment) and gender-based violence, which include, but is not limited to, the offenses of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking. Gender-based violence is the umbrella term used by 快活app when referring to sexual assault, dating or domestic violence, sexual harassment, and stalking.

快活app officials respond swiftly to all reports of these incidents to provide support services for those who have experienced gender-based violence; protect the rights of all 快活app students, faculty, and staff members and campus visitors under our Title IX and Clery obligations; apply Student Honor Code and employee conduct policies and other applicable policies and procedures; and cooperate fully with law enforcement officials to the extent of the law. Complaints of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and other forms of harassment may be resolved pursuant to 快活app鈥檚 EOIX Discrimination and Harassment Procedures. A complete copy of 快活app鈥檚 policies and procedures governing gender-based violence (sexual misconduct) can be reviewed at /equalopportunity/policies-procedures.听

The procedures seek to encourage faculty, staff, and students to report and address incidents of harassment. The procedures are prompt, fair, and impartial 鈥 from the initial investigation to the final result.

Reporting to the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX

The Office of Equal Opportunity and Title IX has established procedures for addressing instances of reports of gender-based violence, discrimination or harassment by 快活app students, faculty, and staff. All reports of gender-based violence, harassment or discrimination are forwarded to the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX. The Title IX Coordinator will reach out to all victims regardless of where the victimization took place and who the accused is and offer an intake meeting. While there is no time limit for reporting, reports of prohibited conduct should be brought forward as soon as possible; all incidents should be reported even if significant time has elapsed, but prompt reporting will better enable 快活app to respond, investigate, provide an appropriate remedy, and impose disciplinary action if appropriate.听

Any individual, other than a Responsible Employee, can make a report without disclosing one鈥檚 own name, identifying the Respondent, or requesting any action. Anonymous reports are referred to Department of Campus Safety and the Title IX Coordinator for review for appropriate action. 快活app will review all anonymous reports, and where there is sufficient information, include applicable information in Clery Act reporting. Depending on the level of information available about the incident or the individuals involved, 快活app may not be able to fully respond or take further action in response to an anonymous report.

The Title IX Coordinator will offer assistance to the victim, provide information about supportive measures and offer to meet to review the applicable 快活app procedures and investigation process with the victim and options for participation in a formal 快活app investigation and reporting to law enforcement. Although 快活app encourages formal reporting to both the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX and law enforcement (when criminal behavior is involved), victims are not required to participate in 快活app investigations or report to local law enforcement. A victim鈥檚 decision not to move forward with a 快活app investigation or not to report to law enforcement does not impact their ability to utilize all the support and resources available through 快活app.听

Requests regarding the confidentiality of such reports will be considered by 快活app in determining an appropriate response; however, 快活app may not be able to fully investigate and respond to a report if the complainant requests that their name not be disclosed to the respondent or declines to participate in an investigation. 快活app will consider Complainant鈥檚 request for confidentiality as one of many factors in determining the appropriate means for resolution of the reported conduct. 快活app may be unable to honor such a request in certain circumstances in order to adequately fulfill 快活app鈥檚 obligations to promote a safe and inclusive environment.

快活app has confidential resources with whom members of the 快活app community can consult for advice and information regarding making a report of gender-based violence, discrimination, or harassment, including sexual harassment.听

The Process听

快活app administrative proceedings are conducted in a manner that is consistent with state and federal law, and that supports 快活app鈥檚 commitment to enhancing safety. Proceeding in a manner that is respectful of victims/survivors, 快活app administrative proceedings provide prompt and appropriate action to prevent future incidents of gender-based violence, discrimination, or harassment. 快活app investigates these incidents and takes steps reasonably calculated to prevent their recurrence.

The Office of Equal Opportunity and Title IX鈥檚 investigation and resolution make sure allegations of gender-based violence, discrimination, and harassment are addressed in a fair and equitable manner and are conducted in a manner that protects the safety of victims and promotes accountability.听

Investigations are conducted by professional staff in the Office of Equal Opportunity and Title IX, who do not have a real or perceived conflict of interest or bias for or against the complainant or the respondent and receive annual specialized training on issues related to gender-based violence.

The standard of proof that the Office of Equal Opportunity & Title IX applies to its investigations and all proceedings is preponderance of the evidence. Preponderance of the evidence means an allegation is proven, if, based on the credible, relevant information acquired during the investigation and provided at the hearing under the Title IX procedures on one side outweighs the credible, relevant information on the other side, such that is it more likely than not the alleged fact or conduct occurred.

The Federal Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act

The Federal Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act mandates that convicted sex offenders who are required to register under state law must also disclose their association with institutions of higher education when applicable. Specifically affected are those registered sex offenders who attend, are employed by/at, or volunteer at institutions of post-secondary education.

How to inquire: Inquiries regarding registered sex offenders who reside in the neighborhood or who have disclosed an association with 快活app, as noted above, should be directed to:
