Navigating D.C.’s Office of Human Rights and the DCHRA

A free webinar presented by the MWELA Bench Bar Committee; co-sponsored by the Bar Association of the District of Columbia.

Join us for a tour of the District of Columbia Office of Human Rights (DCOHR). We will learn how the DCOHR adjudicates complaints filed by DC government and private employees. We will also explore the latest DC Court of Appeals interpretations of important provisions of the DCHRA including its causation and employment action standard. We will review important changes to the DCHRA’s standard for sexual harassment. All under a statute that requires no mandatory exhaustion of administrative remedies.

This event does not offer CLE credit. Registrants will receive Zoom login details on the day before the event.
