Reporting A Concern

The USOPC is committed to providing a positive, healthy, and safe environment, and promoting a culture of integrity within the United States Olympic and Paralympic community. An important part of this commitment is the USOPC’s Integrity Platform, which includes reporting mechanisms that allow members of our community to report their concerns either confidentially or anonymously. Links to these various reporting tools are included below along with a description of where you should report your concern.

Reporting Mechanisms

Report here if you have reasonable suspicion of sexual misconduct or harassment, child abuse (including child sexual abuse), or intimate relationships involving an imbalance of power. The Center also accepts reports of emotional and physical misconduct (including but not limited to bullying, hazing, stalking, and harassment) within the U.S. Olympic and Paralympic Movement. Reports of emotional and physical misconduct can also be reported directly to your sport’s NGB.

USOPC Security and Athlete Safety Reporting Portal

Report here if you are aware of or have experienced emotional abuse, physical abuse, a violation of the Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policies (MAAPP), or have any security concerns. The USOPC will refer allegations of sexual misconduct and child abuse to the U.S. Center for SafeSport. Allegations of child abuse will also be reported to law enforcement. The USOPC will refer allegations of emotional or physical abuse or violations of the MAAPP that do not fall under its jurisdiction to the U.S. Center for SafeSport and/or the appropriate National Governing Body.

Report Here

The Integrity Portal is an online reporting platform that allows individuals to confidentially or anonymously report concerns to the USOPC. Anyone may report a concern through the Integrity Portal relating to the USOPC’s or NGBs’ compliance with their bylaws, policies, or procedures, or the Ted Stevens Olympic and Amateur Sports Act; ethics matters such as conflicts of interest; and governance matters concerning the USOPC or NGBs. Anyone may also report alleged employee misconduct, code of conduct violations, or other concerns regarding the USOPC. The USOPC's Speak Up Policy strictly prohibits retaliation against individuals who report concerns.

Report Here

All cases of suspected emotional, physical, or sexual abuse of a minor must be reported to law enforcement immediately. Filing a report with the U.S. Center for SafeSport or the USOPC does not satisfy this obligation.

If you are experiencing an emergency, call 911 immediately.
