What Happens If You Report a Violation to Us
First, we will listen.
Then, we will help you to determine the options that we have based on the situation. We will also document and retain the details to assure trends of behavior are uncovered across locations.
Lastly, we will follow the situation to a resolution where you feel safe and you can remain anonymous if you wish to be. Acknowledgements
