Systemwide Office of Civil Rights

The Systemwide Office of Civil Rights – composed of the Systemwide Title IX Office, Systemwide Anti-Discrimination Office, and Systemwide Disability Rights Office – provides systemwide guidance and support on issues related to protecting civil rights at UC’s 10 campuses, medical centers, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), and the UC Office of the President. We ensure uniform consistent interpretation and implementation of two comprehensive and systemwide policies: the Sexual Violence and Sexual Harassment Policy and the Anti-Discrimation. SOCR also provides leadership, training, education, and investigative support for UC offices responsible for protecting all civil rights. The campus and location Title IX Officers, Local Implementation Officers, and Title VI/VII Officers have a dual reporting line to the Executive Director of SOCR.
