Looking Out for Others

Fellow students look out for one another through hard times and stressful situations. If you see something as a bystander going on with your fellow student that is not right or out of place, please speak up and say something about it. Speaking up may prevent or identify any such behaviors that may be occurring.
Please report an incident using the online NOVACares Reporting Form by clicking on this link: https://cm.maxient.com/reportingform.php?NorthernVirginiaCC . The NOVACares Program receives and assesses all reports submitted to the NOVACares Office for urgency and severity and assigns the reports to appropriate parties for review and intervention. The NOVACares database assesses and documents reports of violations of academic integrity, concerning behavior, violations of NOVA’s employee or student handbooks (disciplinary or conduct violations), criminal incidents and sexual misconduct/Title IX incidents. FYI reports are also accepted.
For more information or assistance please contact The NOVACares Office which offers two programs: NOVACares and Sexual Assault Services (SAS).
