USDA announced the release of its new “USDA Civil Rights Management System (CRMS) Program Discrimination Complaint electronic submission portal.” The portal allowed USDA customers who believe they have suffered discrimination to submit complaints to USDA through a more streamlined process. The portal was created in response to a review of USDA’s Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights (OASCR), and was designed to allow USDA customers to easily submit and track complaints to the agency.
