  15. Evaluate Work Product • What is the history behind the accusation? • Use written statements: • Eliminates denial • Reduces Misunderstanding • Can be compared to additional statements • Can analyze for content • Saves time

  16. Contact Accused • Tell them who you are and why you are calling • Explain accusation / Can be written • Note an admission or counterclaim • Note “complete confusion” • Denial • What are they willing to do

  17. I’ve done the investigation … WHAT DO I DO NOW??

  18. Responding to Reports of Abuse SafeSport does not create a new disciplinary program or system Follow USA Hockey Bylaw 10 • Summary Suspensions • Hearings • Notifications When in doubt about the process, ask… “In all cases, the disciplinary procedures and actions of USA Hockey and its Affiliates and local programs shall be proportionate, reasonable and applied fairly and equally.”
