SBL meetings are harassment-free events for everyone regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, race, age or religion. If an individual in attendance at an SBL-sanctioned meeting event is found to have violated the SBL harassment policy, SBL will revoke the individual’s permission to be on the premises and that individual forfeits registration fees. Should such an incident arise, SBL will work directly with security and law enforcement to manage the removal process. If a member is being harassed or notices an act of harassment, contact a meeting staff member immediately.
