Please complete the following form to file an incident report with the Lakes of Fire Code of Conduct Committee (COCC). This form is intended to collect information about possible Code of Conduct violations within our community and will be used for record-keeping and to inform any potential follow-up and investigation, so be as thorough as possible. Anonymous reports cannot be followed up on, but will be retained for record-keeping purposes and potentially referenced during the investigation of related incidents.
If a report is actionable, the COCC will obtain consent from you, the reporter, about who they can speak to and how much can be shared during the investigation. The COCC will provide updates intermittently throughout the investigation process. When the COCC feels an adequate investigation has been made, the committee will discuss what actions should be taken and send their recommendations to the GLEA Board of Directors, who will make the final call on all cases. As it requires a board vote to close a case and take action, please expect this process to take some time.
Important to remember:
- All reports are encouraged, although we have limited ability to respond to reports existing outside the scope of Lakes of Fire. Additionally, we can only investigate first-hand reports, as we want to empower those directly affected and allow them the opportunity to choose if and when they want to disclose. In order for us to investigate these incidents, the people impacted should contact us directly themselves, if and when they are ready to do so. However, we can document second-hand reports to connect incidents as needed.- Please note that the committee meets at least twice a month, and it may take multiple meetings to investigate and respond to reports. The committee does not meet for two weeks before and after the Lakes of Fire event. We appreciate your patience during the process.
-This reporting process is a collaborative effort between you and the COCC. To ensure effective resolution of your report, we request your ongoing communication and cooperation. Without active participation, our ability to investigate and resolve the matter is significantly limited, and the case may be closed or placed on pause.
