Background

The Department of Human Services (DHS) conducted a Civil Rights Compliance Employee Training Needs Assessment in July and August of 2007. Survey results include 658 DHS employee responses--including 140 supervisory and 506 non-supervisory participants with 12 not specifying current assignment type.

The survey and assessment was a joint effort of the Personnel Office, Civil Rights Compliance Staff (CRCS) and the Management Services Office (MSO) Research Staff. Designed to assist in improving DHS’ services, prevent civil rights violations, and meet Federal and State guidelines from agencies that fund its programs, the survey results are summarized as follows:

Group	*Type or Need*
	Information	Formal Training	Developmental
Supervisory	§ Reasonable Accommodations § Complaint Process	§ Civil Rights Compliance Issues	§ Civil Rights Laws
Non-Supervisory	§ Complaint Process	§ Civil Rights Compliance Issues	§ Civil Rights Laws

See the complete Civil Rights Compliance Needs Assessment Survey Results here.

To respond to some of the needs expressed in this assessment, the Personnel Office, Civil Rights Compliance Staff, in cooperation with staff in the Office of the Director, initiates this Civil Rights Corner which will cover topics related to Civil Rights issues and needs.
