               Honoring the work done by the 12th Woman.

Whereas institutions of higher education are encouraged to inform all victims of 
        sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking, 
        including in a physical written format--

    (1) of the victim's rights under Federal and State law;

    (2) of the victim's rights and options pursuant to the policy that the 
institution of higher education has developed pursuant to clauses (ii) 
through (vii) of section 485(f)(8)(B) of the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of 
Campus Security Policy and Campus Statistics Act (20 U.S.C. 1092(f));

    (3) of the victim's reporting options, including the option to notify a 
higher education responsible employee, the option to notify local law 
enforcement, and any other reporting options;

    (4) a description of the process of investigation and any disciplinary 
proceeding of the institution that may follow notification of a higher 
education responsible employee;

    (5) a description of the process of investigation and adjudication of 
the criminal justice system that may follow notification of law 
enforcement;

    (6) a description of the jurisdiction, scope, and possible sanctions of 
the student disciplinary process of the institution of higher education and 
of the criminal justice process;

    (7) that the student disciplinary process of the institution of higher 
education in not equivalent to, and should not be considered a substitute 
for, the criminal justice process; and

    (8) any limitations on the ability of the sexual assault response 
coordinator to provide privacy or confidentiality to the victim under the 
policies of the institution of higher education, Federal law, or State law: 
Now, therefore, be it

    Resolved, That the House encourages--
            (1) institutions of higher education to list on their 
        website--
                    (A) the name and contact information for the sexual 
                assault response coordinator;
                    (B) reporting options, including confidential 
                options, for victims of domestic violence, dating 
                violence, sexual assault, or stalking;
                    (C) the process of investigation and disciplinary 
                proceedings of the institution;
                    (D) the process of investigation and adjudication 
                of the criminal justice system;
                    (E) potential reasonable accommodations that the 
                institution may provide to a victim;
                    (F) the telephone number and website address for a 
                local, State, or national hotline providing information 
                to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, 
                and stalking victims (which shall be clearly 
                communicated on the website and shall be updated on a 
                timely basis); and
                    (G) the name and location of the nearest medical 
                facility where an individual may have a medical 
                forensic examination administered by a trained sexual 
                assault forensic nurse, including information on 
                transportation options and available reimbursement for 
                a visit to such facility; and
            (2) institutions of higher education to enter into 
        memoranda of understanding with all applicable local law 
        enforcement agencies to clearly delineate responsibilities and 
        share information so that when a crime occurs, both campus 
        authorities and local authorities can focus on solving the 
        crime rather than debating jurisdiction.
