Abstract: The Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice enforces the nation's federal civil rights statutes. Members of the public play a critical role in this effort by reporting civil rights violations to the Division. To facilitate this reporting process, the Division is developing a streamlined online Reporting Portal for Civil Rights Violations. This Portal is designed to facilitate and enhance individual complainant's reporting opportunities, save members of the public time in reporting violations, and improve how the Division responds to those reports. The information the Division plans to collect using the reporting portal will help the Division fulfill its enforcement responsibilities.
