Submit a Human Rights Complaint

If you have experienced discrimination or been denied opportunities in housing, employment, education, or access to public accommodations because of your race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, ethnic background, disability, marital, or veteran status, or because you have children or receive public assistance, you may file a complaint form with the Greenfield Human Rights Commission. Filing a complaint with the commission is not a substitute for filing a complaint with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination. You may also want to file an official complaint with the Massachusetts commission within 300 days of the incident.

Please note: This complaint form shall not be used to report the official actions of City of Greenfield officers or employees, including police officers, or any members of boards or commissions of the City of Greenfield, as this is outside of the jurisdiction of the HRC. Your submitted form will become public record.
