Pi Kappa Phi Makes Reporting Easier With New Anonymous Texting Technology

08/26/24

Pi Kappa Phi reinforces the importance of student well-being with RealResponse, a two-way, anonymous communications platform.

Charlotte, NC (August 27, 2024) – Pi Kappa Phi is the first fraternity to embrace RealResponse, offering members access to everyday communication channels like texting, QR codes, and email to anonymously report misconduct or seek help and resources.

With RealResponse, Pi Kappa Phi is rolling out a trusted and effective digital reporting system. The platform’s two-way, anonymous communication features will enable Pi Kappa Phi to generate more accurate and higher-quality reports during any type of investigation while promoting a community that cares about each of its members.

RealResponse got its start in college athletics, where it serves close to two hundred athletics departments and has expanded to higher education, providing campuses with easy-to-use technology for students to share concerns. Now, with Pi Kappa Phi, RealResponse is thrilled to welcome its first fraternity.

“Pi Kappa Phi and our brotherhood of more than 130,000 members are always striving to innovate while upholding our core values and bettering our communities,” stated Pi Kappa Phi Chief Executive Officer Jake Henderson. “Our investment in RealResponse demonstrates our commitment to creating an environment where proactive and timely harm reduction practices are embraced and practiced by our members.”

As the first fraternity to adopt RealResponse, Pi Kappa Phi not only supplements its more traditional web form for reporting but also bolsters its commitment to upholding the standards and shared values that have been integral in developing leaders for more than a century. 

“We are honored to have Pi Kappa Phi join our community as the first college fraternity,” commented RealResponse Founder and CEO David Chadwick. “Enabling fraternity members to speak up via a confidential channel demonstrates organizational commitment to ensuring a safe and positive environment for all. Pi Kappa Phi leadership has taken creative and innovative steps to manage risk proactively.”

The RealResponse platform will be rolled out to Pi Kappa Phi undergraduate members this fall.
