I want to provide an update on the actions we're taking to address recent allegations on social media about gender and sexual violence at NOC. Gender and sexual violence of any kind is destructive to our communities, our organizing environment and our sense of social justice. We want to reiterate that NOC does not tolerate sexual harassment or violence by our staff in or out of the office.We at NOC have taken swift action to investigate these serious and concerning rumors and allegations. As we've previously said, we're committed to an independent investigation rooted in a transformative justice model for complaints involving staff or others affiliated with NOC. This process will result in recommendations about any legal or disciplinary action, rooted in a transformative justice framework. While NOC cannot publicly discuss our internal employment decisions, we will be as transparent as possible while maintaining confidentiality where necessary.
