**What CARES does.** CARES is dedicated to providing completely confidential support to members of the programming language community. We listen to members who come to us for advice or who just want to talk. If they would like advice on what kinds of actions they can take, we do our best to provide such advice.

**Confidentiality.** When a person approaches a CARES member in confidence, that CARES member will not share any information about the situation with anyone else without that person's explicit permission, unless there is an imminent threat or danger of some kind. Indeed, CARES members do not share the details of contacts made with other CARES members unless permitted.

As a result, our annual reports are brief. They do not contain details about the types of contacts that CARES members have made and they do not even contain specific numbers of contacts. The reports are structured this way to protect the privacy of those that approach us.

We have received open, public feedback from a number of members of the community expressing the fact that they appreciate the creation of the committee---they view it as a sign that the programming languages community takes community climate and our code of conduct seriously. The fact the committee has received confidential contacts is also evidence that the community would like mechanisms to discuss matters of harassment, discrimination, or ethics in private.
