If you have experienced or witnessed any discrimination, harassment, and/or violence as a result of the increasing racism and xenophobia resulting from rhetoric surrounding CoVID-19, this is a space for you to report those instances.

BRIDGE is committed to ensuring that all students, staff, and faculty in the Psychology department feel safe. Information that is reported to BRIDGE through this form will be used to alert the Psychology community of instances of discrimination in the State College area as well as to track if any particular areas seem to be spaces where more discrimination is occurring. This will allow BRIDGE to alert others and, when appropriate and possible, work with locations to eliminate the discrimination that is occurring. In addition, BRIDGE can help file official reports if that is desired.

Please note that this information will not be collected as study data. Reports will only be shared to ensure that others feel safe and so that we can, hopefully, minimize discrimination in our area. Any reports that are shared will remove all personal information so that the reporter cannot be identified. There are also options to share reports completely anonymously.

If you have any concerns or questions when filling out the form, please contact the BRIDGE Steering Committee: Anna Zhou, Jose Soto, and Nathaniel Schermerhorn.
