Harassment

The Utah Democratic Party (UDP) is committed to fostering and creating space for full participation for its members and does not tolerate harassment. We are continuously developing better processes and policies and are always looking to improve. Please fill out this form if you feel you are the victim of harassment. If this is an emergency, please call 911 or Utah’s statewide 24-hour Sexual Violence Hotline 1-888-421-1100.

Our Anti-Harassment Policy was recently amended and adopted at the 2018 Q4 State Central Committee, held in Central Region (SLCo) on Wednesday, December 19, 2018, and is available at this link. 2018 Harassment Task Force Recommendations can be viewed at this link.

The membership of the 2019 Harassment Task Force Select Committee has been selected and are working on suggested revisions to our most current Anti-Harassment Policies & Procedures, best practices / statement of values, and recommendations for an updated Code of Conduct. Task force is made up of at least 50% representation beyond Salt Lake County, per establishing motion.

We continue seeking Public Input. Please follow this link to provide us with suggestions on improvements to our Anti-Harassment Policy. Our current governing documents can be viewed at this link.
