Due to resource constraints, GAP can only represent a small number of the many individuals who
Request GAP Assistance. However, GAP provides whistleblowers with other forms of assistance, including the following resources:
GAP is in the process of designing a pilot program called the Whistleblower Support Network. The concept of this program is to allow individuals who are considering blowing the whistle, or already have done so, to contact former whistleblowers to seek confidential advice, guidance, or simply to share what they are going through. Often for new whistleblowers, it helps tremendously to speak directly with someone who has gone through a similar situation. Conversely, individuals who have gone through this taxing process are often interested in sharing their experiences; they can offer key advice and answer burning questions from those in need.
Disclaimer:
It is important for you to understand that your participation in the Whistleblower Support Network does not mean that we are representing you. The program is intended to facilitate dialogue between whistleblowers, not to render or facilitate legal advice. Thus, GAP is not responsible for any advice given to or by participating whistleblowers.
If you are considering blowing the whistle or are experiencing retaliation, and would like to participate in the program, please send an email to
intake@whistleblower.org detailing your situation in full. This should include the industry that you work in, what steps you have previously taken, and all other relevant information. Please title the subject line "Whistleblower Support Network."
If you have been a whistleblower previously and would like to participate in the program by offering advice to people in need of it, please send an email to
intake@whistleblower.org detailing your whistleblowing situation. This would include which industry you worked in, circumstances and background of the case, and other relevant information. Please title the subject line "Whistleblower Support Network."
After we internally match whistleblowers, we will confirm that each party is still interested and provide instructions as to appropriate next steps. We will try to accommodate as many parties as possible.
GAP expects to begin matching whistleblowers later this summer, depending on the response rate. Thank you for your interest in GAP.
