Title IX Policies and Procedures
August 28, 2025 1:32 PM

Dear Students, Faculty and Staff,

The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign believes that each member of our university community should expect to learn and work in a community that prioritizes care, dignity, and mutual respect. This expectation includes our responsibility to create a campus community that is free of harassment and discrimination based on sex, including sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking, and other forms of sexual misconduct. 

As we begin a new academic year, I write to share information about the offices, policies and resources available at Illinois to help prevent and respond to sexual harassment and misconduct, as well as discuss rights and support.

Danielle Fleenor, our university’s Title IX Coordinator, provides oversight and support for the university’s comprehensive Title IX programs and initiatives under the Sexual Misconduct Policy. In addition, the Title IX Office staff also meets with students to discuss rights, resources, and assist with reasonable modifications based on pregnancy or related conditions. The university’s Pregnancy and Related Conditions policy and the Title IX Office: Pregnancy and Related Conditions website provide additional information about university obligations and available resources and support. Dr. Fleenor can be reached at titleixcoordinator@illinois.edu or (844) 616-7978. You may also visit the Title IX Office for more information about ways the office can assist.

A full description of the Sexual Misconduct Policy, process and information about reporting obligations, as well as the provision of confidential advisors, is maintained centrally on the We Care: Sexual Misconduct Support, Response, and Prevention website. All students, faculty, and staff are asked to review the University of Illinois System Statement on Sex Discrimination which is also located on the We Care site. The Sexual Misconduct Policy can be found in the Campus Administrative Manual and Student Code

If you experience sexual misconduct – including sexual harassment, sexual assault, and other forms of sexual violence – know that you are not alone and support is available. On our campus, there are several confidential resources, including the Counseling Center, McKinley Health Center, Faculty Staff Assistance and Well-Being Services, and the Women’s Resources Center (WRC). The WRC has Confidential Advisors, who are staff members specifically trained to provide support and advocacy. The We Care site has additional information about campus resources and answers to frequently asked questions about reporting options.

Sexual misconduct in any form violates our institutional values. It is the responsibility of each one of us to stand up against harmful behavior in our community. I encourage you to take a few moments to learn more about these campus resources, so that together we can continue to create a university that supports and values the success and well-being of all.

Sincerely,

Gioconda Guerra Pérez
Interim Vice Chancellor for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Designate
