UE and Grand River Solutions partner to mitigate sexual misconduct risks

United Educators (UE), a reciprocal risk retention group, has partnered with education consulting firm Grand River Solutions to offer UE-insured colleges, universities, and K-12 schools expanded tools for mitigating sexual misconduct risk and promoting educational environments free from harassment and discrimination. 

What the two companies describe as an ‘innovative partnership’ encourages UE members to enhance their prevention and response strategies while reducing insurance costs. 

“Our goal is to help foster safer campus communities,” said Sarah Braughler, vice president of risk management for UE. “We also understand that given today’s challenges education leaders welcome ways to reduce costs.” 

“Partnering with UE aligns with our mission to help institutions by identifying practical, proactive steps institutions can take to reduce risk while being mindful of each campus’s culture, vision and values,” said Jody Shipper, co-founder and managing director of Grand River Solutions. “We look forward to partnering with UE members that are making meaningful improvements for their communities.”
