There are a number of resources available to staff to handle problems. If you are not sure where to turn for help or other means leave an issue unresolved, the University Ombuds Office provides individuals with a confidential space to speak freely and be listened to respectfully. The Ombuds Program, officially named the Virginia Tech Office of Interactive Communication & Empowerment (VOICE), helps you navigate through that sea of conflict when it comes up. The office is offering in-person appointments along with phone or video-conferencing options.

To schedule an appointment please email Ombuds@vt.edu or call and leave a message at 540-231-3125. Your information will be treated confidentially.
