Title IX Staff

Role of the Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Coordinators

The Title IX Coordinator plays a central role in ensuring NCC’s compliance with Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in education. This individual is responsible for overseeing the institution’s response to Title IX complaints, including those involving sexual harassment, assault, and gender-based misconduct. The Coordinator ensures that investigations are prompt, thorough, and impartial, and that all parties receive supportive measures and procedural protections. They also develop and implement policies, provide training for students and staff, and monitor campus climate to prevent discrimination. Importantly, the Title IX Coordinator serves as a neutral point of contact for anyone seeking information or wishing to file a complaint. By fulfilling these responsibilities, the Title IX Coordinator helps create a safe and equitable educational environment for all students and employees.
