Hotline Reporting Form

You can use this web form to submit allegations for review by the National Endowment for the Arts' Office of Inspector General.

Please provide us with as many details as you can about the alleged misconduct, the people involved, and anyone whom you think can provide more information.

While you can submit this form anonymously, doing so may limit our ability to conduct an investigation if questions only you can answer arise. If you do not provide your email address or some other form of contact information, we cannot respond to you. If you do choose to submit this form anonymously, please provide as many details as possible.

Government employees are protected from reprisal. Your identity will be held in confidence, unless the Inspector General determines the disclosure to be unavoidable.
