Please email the Coordinator at respect@uregina.ca to schedule a confidential consultation.

Formal Complaint Process:

In certain circumstances, a formal complaint process may be necessary.

If you've already consulted with the Coordinator and it's been determined that a formal complaint process is required, please follow these steps to request a formal investigation:

  1. Fill out the formal complaint form.
  2. Prepare a separate document (the "Complaint") clearly stating the details of the alleged harassment or discrimination.
  3. Include any evidence you may have (emails, text messages, screenshots, etc.) and provide a list of witnesses.

Once you have completed the form and your Complaint, please email the information to the Coordinator at respect@uregian.ca  or alternatively, contact the Coordinator to arrange a meeting to discuss your concerns.
