PROTECTING
YOUR CIVIL RIGHTS


Civil Rights Submission Form

(Formulario de Presentación de Derechos Civiles)
Your Name (Nombre)






The Chico Chapter of the ACLU of Northern California does not possess a trained staff or attorneys authorized by our headquarters office to handle civil rights complaints.

We will evaluate complaints for the purpose of identifying potential patterns of civil rights abuses to target in our activism work, and will then refer you to our affiliate office or help direct you to appropriate resources.  If we do not believe it is a civil rights matter, we will so advise, and direct you to our affiliate office for assistance at their discretion.

If you wish to talk with a trained civil rights counselor, call our San Francisco office at (415) 621-2488 between the hours of 10:00-12:00 and 1:00-3:00 on weekdays, and excepting holidays, where trained staff is available.

Please allow time for us to review and consider your complaint.  You will be contacted by a member of our board.

By pressing the submit button below, I acknowledge that the ACLU Chico Chapter cannot provide any direct legal assistance or referrals to attorneys, but we can consider ways to educate and mobilize community members to take action on important issues that impact our civil rights.

Al pulsar el botón de envío a continuación, reconozco que la ACLU Chico capítulo no puede proporcionar ninguna asistencia jurídica directa o referencias a abogados, pero podemos estudiar los medios para educar y movilizar a los miembros de la comunidad a adoptar medidas sobre cuestiones importantes que afectan a nuestros derechos civiles.

Only Press once!  It can take awhile to post.
