Please use this form to report a racial grievance to Alexander Hamilton Scholars. If you request follow up, an AHS representative will reach out to you within three business days to learn more about the incident and work with you to determine next steps for addressing the grievance. Your responses will be sent to the Executive Director.
This policy and reporting form is intended for racism that happens in connection with Alexander Hamilton Scholars. We are a small organization, and unfortunately do not have capacity to address racism outside of our organization, volunteers, partners, and vendors. If you are looking to report a racist incident that isn’t connected to AHS, please reach out using
info@hamiltonscholars.org to be connected to services in your area.
Summary of Racial Grievance Policy*
AHS is building an anti-racist culture of belonging, where people can show up being their true selves, and accountability and is working to model anti-racist practices in our institutional and personal behavior. The racial grievance policy is to support people of color to feel safe in the Hamilton community and to actively address and interrupt microaggressions, harassment, racial discrimination, and other racial misconduct. Our racial grievance policy is grounded in the lived experiences of people of color and our commitment to addressing and reducing racial grievances in our community. AHS’ culture is growing to be truly more representative, so people of color in our community have organizational support and feel safe.
You can access our full racial grievance policy at
www.hamiltonscholars.org/racialgrievancepolicy, including definitions of racist incidents, steps for reporting and addressing racial grievances, contact information for AHS representatives, and confidentiality and protection from retaliation.
