Discrimination Complaint Form

Complaints by individuals who believe themselves to have been harmed by discrimination, discriminatory harassment or retaliation based on a protected class status covered by law or UAB policy, may be filed with the UAB Office of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.

All complaints of discrimination and/or harassment should be filed as soon after the alleged incident or conduct as possible. In all situations, complaints are treated with the greatest degree of confidentiality possible and maintained on a strict need-to-know basis; however, confidentiality is maintained to the degree that it does not interfere with the University’s obligation to investigate allegations of misconduct that may require corrective action.

To file a complaint, please complete the online UAB Discrimination Complaint Form below. Upon receipt, a representative from the Office of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion will contact you within 3 business days.

For all emergencies, call 911.
