Mission Statement for the UC Riverside Office of the Ombuds

The Ombuds Office strives to “humanize the UCR campus, making it a viable and responsible institution of people” 

We do so by:

• Empowering members of the UCR community who consult confidentially with us to navigate through thorny UCR-related concerns. 
• Impartially facilitating dialogue, mediation and other informal collaborative group processes.
• Providing useful educational resources and workshops on such topics as conflict engagement, communication, fairness, and ethics.
• Offering practical, independent recommendations to administrators at all levels of the university in order to catalyze positive systemic change and to promote fair and equitable processes.

The UCR Ombuds Office operates in accordance with our Charter Agreement and other professional standards.
