Title IX Supportive Measures: Your Non-Punitive Toolkit for Immediate Student Safety
Description
Are you clear on the difference between supportive measures and disciplinary action in Title IX cases? Today, we focus on the most immediate and powerful tool in your administrative toolkit: supportive measures. These are individualized, non-punitive services designed to restore or preserve equal access to education for all parties, often serving as the crucial first intervention. Learn the high-impact strategies you can implement right away, including the creation of clear no-contact orders (NCOs), practical academic and schedule modifications (like class or transportation route adjustments), and the proactive offering of counseling and mental health referrals. Mastering these compassionate, human-centered responses is key to effective, compliant, and swift action that builds deep student trust.
Remember: supportive measures must be offered to both the complainant and the respondent, ensuring safety and equity are your immediate non-negotiable priorities.
