CSU Systemwide Title IX & DHR Assessment by Cozen O'Connor

As you may know, the CSU Chancellor’s Office is conducting a systemwide assessment of its Title IX & Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation (DHR) programs. This assessment, known as the Cozen Review, is a systemwide effort with each of CSU’s 23 campuses undergoing a review of their campus programs. The findings of this review will aid in strengthening the CSU’s culture by assessing current practices and providing insights, recommendations, and resources to advance our Title IX and civil rights training, awareness, prevention, intervention, compliance, and support systems.

The Cozen O’Conner’s Institutional Response Group has scheduled our campus review for January 17-19, 2023. Over these three days, their team of reviewers will be on campus to meet with stakeholders and implementers whose work intersects with Title IX and DHR efforts. As campus community members, you will have an unique opportunity to meet with the reviewers to share your perspectives and needs around these services.

Information shared in the individual meetings with campus stakeholders and constituents will be maintained as private by Cozen O’Connor and will not be shared with CSU Dominguez Hills or CSU leadership in a way that personally identifies the source of the information. Instead, Cozen O’Connor will seek to identify aggregate themes about our strengths and challenges in our approach to the prevention and response to reports of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.

Later in the spring, you will have an additional opportunity to participate in a survey where you can share information anonymously or request the opportunity to speak directly with a member of the Cozen O’Connor team. Additionally, any member of the campus community may email Cozen O’Connor directly at CalStateReview@cozen.com.
