Matt, Thanks for the clarification! So with the policy covering all interactions as they pertain to LOPSA, what is going to make the policy something that sticks? My point is this--we have a slim value proposition for being a member. If someone violates the policy, what are the repercussions? At the risk of seeming Draconian, what do our members lose if they violate the sexual harassment policy? The only *real* punitive measures would be taken by authorities, *if* the person being harassed were comfortable enough to report it to the authorities and *if* we create an atmosphere that makes going to the proper authorities as something that's encouraged, should a member be harassed, sexually or otherwise.
As it stands, it seems like having the policy, to me, is something that's merely for sake of having a sexual harassment policy, and less for the sake of setting up a means of protecting a member experiences harassment or physical/sexual violence. How do we take this from a high-level, disembodied concept, to something that will effect our members "on the ground." Just some thoughts/musings. Aaron
