• Name(s) and contact information of the alleged discriminatory actor(s);
• Name(s) and contact information of witness(es) to the discrimination;
• Name(s) and contact information of similarly situated individuals of a different race, sex, or other protected class who received preferential treatment;

If, after investigating, OCR finds that the recipient of Justice Department funding engaged in unlawful discrimination, it will work to bring the recipient into compliance. If necessary, OCR may seek the suspension or termination of the Justice Department's financial assistance.
