The re-launch of its Attorney-Drafted Charges Pilot Program was designed to streamline the filing process for discrimination cases at OHR. This initiative allowed attorneys to file charges on behalf of their clients, helping to reduce intake processing times and address the growing demand for timely justice. Originally running from July 15, 2024, to December 31, 2024, then extended for a 60-day window and ended on March 3, 2025, the program seeked valuable feedback from stakeholders, including the Council of the District of Columbia, local bar associations, and advocacy groups, to ensure its effectiveness.
