CCE Sexual Harassment Prevention Training for Volunteers
The purpose of this training is to set forth a common understanding about what is and what is not acceptable in the CCE environment. All volunteers are expected to:
- Watch video
- Confirm participation and understanding of expectations
- Communicate with local CCE Staff about your participation (forward the e-mail confirmation that you receive)
If you believe that you have been subjected to sexual harassment, you are encouraged to complete this online form (also available as a downloadable form). Alternatively, you may contact the Equal Employment Opportunity Officer for the extension system in Extension Administration at Cornell:

You will not be retaliated against for filing a report.
If you are more comfortable reporting verbally or in another manner, your CCE Volunteer Program Coordinator on staff or designee should complete this form, provide you with a copy, and follow the CCE Association Volunteer Involvement Policy: Managing Volunteer Conflicts and Reports.
If the harassment involves unwanted physical touching, coerced physical confinement, or coerced sex acts, the conduct may constitute a crime. Contact the local police department.
