Abstract

The Office for Civil Rights recently released its annual report for the 2024 fiscal year ( https://bit.ly/3WCodQi ). The report shows that OCR experienced another record number of complaints receiving 22,687 total complaints — an increase from 19,201 in FY 2023 (the previous record). Since 2009, the total volume of complaints has nearly tripled, despite the decline in staffing levels over the same period (629 full‐time equivalent staff in 2009 to 588 employees in 2024).
