Please complete the attached Civil Rights & Discrimination Complaint form to assist the Branch's Legal Redress and/or Executive Committee(s) in determining whether the NAACP Media Area Branch may be able to assist you with your complaint. You are encouraged to provide copies of all supporting documentation that pertains to your complaint.
Completion of this form does not constitute filing an official complaint with a legal authority, such as filing a lawsuit or a complaint with a governmental agency. Nor does completing this form establish an attorney-client relationship between the NAACP Media Area Branch and the complainant. Our committee members are volunteers, often without legal backgrounds or experience.
We will investigate all complaints of discrimination that took place within our jurisdiction and can provide non-legal support to complainants (resources, guidance, help writing emails or letters, attendance at meetings, etc.).
Thank you for contacting the NAACP, Media Area Branch. Your activism
and support is greatly appreciated.
Respectfully,
Cynthia Jetter, President
Media Area Branch NAACP
NAACP Media Area Branch Civil & Human Rights Complaint Form
NON-RETALIATION REQUIREMENTS
Section 704 (a) of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, (as amended), Section 4 (d) of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, (as amended), and
various other civil rights laws make it an unlawful employment practice for an employer; employment agency; or labor organization: to
discriminate against employees, applicants for employment, member or applicant for membership, because the employee, member or applicant
has opposed an unlawful employment practice, made a charge, testified, assisted, or participated in any manner in an investigation, proceeding or
hearing.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
Please be advised that filing a discrimination complaint with the NAACP does not mean that the NAACP will be representing you in any legal matter.
If you believe you have a discrimination claim, you must file a claim with the appropriate State or Federal agency in a timely manner. Failure to do
so may prevent you from pursing a claim in a court of law.
