The Office of the Attorney General recently created a Civil Rights Section to ensure robust enforcement of the District’s Human Rights Act. By investing in a few focused and experienced litigators, we hope to complement the important work of the Office of Human Rights with strategic and effective civil rights litigation against those persons or organizations that exhibit a pattern and practice of discrimination against District residents. On July 18, 2019, the Office of the Attorney General and Councilmember Brianne Nadeau’s Office will host a civil rights community listening session from 6:00pm until 8:00pm, at the Reeves Center, 2nd Floor Conference Room, 2000 14th Street, NW. The purpose of the civil rights listening session is to assist us with learning about potential discrimination cases and issues that are affecting District residents. We look forward to hearing your concerns.
