The APSA Virtual Ombuds will be available during at the 2023 APSA TLC Conference to speak with any meeting attendee on a variety of topics including, but not limited to, consultation with anyone who believes that they have experienced any form of harassment, or have concerns about violations of the sexual harassment provisions of the APSA anti-harassment policy while participating in the 2023 TLC Meeting. You are also welcome to speak with the ombuds if you, or your committee, organized section or caucus is facing challenges that you’d like to get the ombuds advice on.
