Policy on Confidential Reporting

Victims and witnesses may report crime on a voluntary, confidential basis when concerns necessitate keeping their identities undisclosed. In these situations, anonymous reporting can be made to Crimes Stoppers of Savannah at (912) 234-2020. Due to open records anonymous reports cannot be taken by the Savannah Technical College Police Department.

Victims who report to a counseling professional are protected by confidentiality laws and may report without fear of disclosure. Professional counselors also can inform the individual being counseled of procedures on how to file a crime report on a confidential basis for inclusion in the annual disclosure of crime statistics.
