Diversity & Inclusion Services is a welcoming resource for students to receive education and support in addressing or reporting discrimination and harassment. We can help you work out strategies for dealing with microaggressions, deciding how to respond, and calling in allies for support. Never remain alone in your experience … you deserve to be treated justly and equitably.
Get Support
If you have experienced discrimination or harassment, you can speak to staff about your options:
- Report incidents involving college employees or students, or taking place on campus property: For on campus incidents where the person who is harassing you or discriminating against you is a college employee, you can report it by contacting humanrights@flemingcollege.ca. If it is a student(s), contact srr@flemingcollege.ca and find support and/or use the online reporting form:
- Report incidents happening in the community: Peterborough Police Services
To report a hate crime, in an emergency dial 911. To report a non-emergency crime, please call 705-876-1122 or use the online Reporting form for hate/bias incidents ( “Any hostile expression that may be motivated by another person’s race, color, disability, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, or gender identity.” )
- Find emotional support: Contact Fleming Personal Wellness Counselling and ask for the BIPOC Counsellor, or join a student club or network where you can find peer support.
