On Campus Resources

Emergency Reporting:

Public Safety: The Public Safety Office is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Reports can be made to DePaul Public Safety

Lincoln Park campus 773-325-7777, Loop campus 312-362-8400.

Anonymous Reporting:

Misconduct Reporting Hotline: You can report anonymously through the Misconduct Reporting Hotline (877-236-8390) or at www.depaul.ethicspoint.com. 24 hours a day, seven days a week. These reports will be sent to the director of Gender Equity (Title IX coordinator) who will make every effort to respond, but the university's ability to respond to an anonymous report may be limited.

Non-Emergency Reporting:

Director of Gender Equity (Title IX coordinator): Please call (312) 362-8970 or email titleixcoordinator@depaul.edu.

Responsible Employees: All DePaul faculty and staff who have not otherwise been designated as confidential reporting resources (see below) are “responsible employees.” Title IX requires that when a responsible employee learns of sex discrimination, including sexual or relationship violence, that individual is required to promptly advise the director of Gender Equity (Title IX coordinator) or other appropriate designees. Because of this, please note that, although DePaul takes confidentiality very seriously, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed when informing DePaul employees of incidents of sexual or relationship violence.

You can make a report online.

Individuals wishing confidential assistance can contact the confidential reporting resources below.
