6-Month Agency Response

We are a member of the Clery Center and our Clery Coordinator is a member of the National Association of Clery Compliance Officers and Professionals (NACCOP). Both organizations provide current and new legislation information, guidance, and policy updates. The Chancellor's Office provides CSU-wide policies and guidance, including a new annual security report (ASR) template distributed in November 2018. Our Clery Compliance Team meets monthly. We have a training component at every meeting to ensure that we are up to date with current policies. Clery Compliance Team members review the ASR before it is distributed to ensure that the policies in the ASR are current.
