BEFORE YOU BEGIN: If this is an emergency that requires immediate attention, call 911 or University Police at (801) 863-5555, before completing this form. This form is NOT designed as an emergency response notification.

The Bias Education & Support Team (BEST) facilitates support resources, conversations, and voluntary educational opportunities for UVU community members involved in or affected by bias incidents. BEST points our community toward effective and constructive responses to bias.

BEST is not an investigative or disciplinary body. This report may be used for the purposes of ongoing climate assessment and follow-up through training and educational outreach. If you provide your contact information, a BEST member can contact you to discuss supportive services and available options.

If you have been the target of protected-class discrimination in violation of UVU policy, and wish to request a formal investigation, please complete the Equal Opportunity formal complaint form located at https://www.uvu.edu/equalopportunity/report.html
