UC Berkeley’s Office for the Prevention of Harassment and Discrimination (OPHD) is committed to fostering a campus climate in which members of our community are protected from all forms of discrimination and harassment.
UC Policy prohibits discrimination and harassment based on a protected category, including sexual violence and sexual harassment. Everyone is encouraged to report incidents of discrimination and harassment to OPHD.
OPHD acts to stop, remedy, and prevent discrimination and harassment. There are many ways Title IX can respond to a report, including but not limited to providing safety & supportive measures, alternative resolutions, targeted educational conversations, and investigations.

OPHD takes a leading role in overseeing education and training programs required by UC policies or other, external laws or requirements.
