WHAT TO DO IF YOU BELIEVE YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED DISCRIMINATION If you think that you have experienced discrimination under a WIOA Title I – financially assisted program or activity, you may file a complaint within 180 days from the date of the alleged violation with ADOW or with the Civil Rights Center (CRC).

Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, NW, Room N-4123 Washington, D.C. 20210 or electronically as directed on the CRC website at www.dol.gov/crc If you file a complaint with ADOW, you must wait either until ADOW issues a written Notice of Final Action, or until 90 days have passed (whichever is sooner), before filing with the Civil Rights Center (see address above). If ADOW does not give you a written Notice of Final Action within 90 days of the day on which you filed your compliant, you may file a complaint with CRC before you receive the Notice. However, you must file your CRC complaint within 30 days of the 90-day deadline (in other words, within 120 days after the day on which you filed your complaint with ADOW). If ADOW does give you a written Notice of Final Action on your complaint, but you disagree with the decision or resolution, you may file a complaint with CRC. You must file your CRC complaint within 30 days of the date on which you received the Notice of Final Action. Reference: 29 CFR §38.35
