What’s Different About Civil Rights Mediations?
- Settlement terms may range from simple clarifications of an incident to an apology, letters of reference, reinstatement, affirmative action (such as policy changes), and monetary settlements.
- Every written agreement includes a statement that it is a full and final settlement of all charges and requires withdrawal of the complaint.
- A copy of every written agreement is provided to the HCRC Executive Director who reviews all agreements to determine whether any further affirmative action might be required of the respondent.
- If there is no agreement the case is returned to the HCRC investigative process.
