Section 02
Why prevention matters
The costliest complaint is often the one an organization was not prepared to handle.
Training is not merely a compliance exercise. It gives employees and school personnel the judgment to recognize concerns, report them correctly, and respond without compounding the harm. Written procedures then turn that knowledge into consistent institutional action.
Nearly $700 Millionrecovered by the EEOC for workers in FY 2024 through administrative enforcement, federal-sector processes, and litigation.
$660 Millionrecovered by the EEOC for workers in FY 2025, including $528 million before litigation and $27 million through litigation.
For educational institutions
The cost is not measured only by a settlement.
Recent OCR resolutions show what can follow an inadequate institutional response: reopening prior case files, rewriting policies, retraining employees and students, creating centralized recordkeeping, administering climate surveys, providing individual remedies, and submitting to continued federal monitoring. Those obligations consume time, personnel, and resources that schools need for teaching and student support.
Review recent OCR resolutions ↗01Conduct occurs
Harassment, discrimination, retaliation, or unequal treatment is alleged.
02Response falters
Reporting lines are unclear, records are incomplete, or action is inconsistent.
03Risk compounds
Harm continues, trust erodes, and an administrative complaint may follow.
04Exposure grows
Legal fees, agency oversight, corrective action, reputational harm, or litigation.
Address consistently
Procedures create consistency
Defined roles, timelines, documentation standards, and escalation paths keep concerns from falling by the wayside.
Document and resolve
Fair process creates confidence
A neutral, well-documented response protects participants and produces a record leaders can rely upon.
Section 03
The national picture
Complaints and enforcement remain a consequential institutional risk.
These figures distinguish among agency lawsuits, administrative charges, and complaints. They are not interchangeable—but together they show why early preparation and disciplined response matter.
345 EEOC lawsuits included Title VII claims across the five fiscal years. During the same period, the EEOC received 392,603 new discrimination charges under all statutes. Charges are administrative filings; they are not lawsuits. One suit may assert claims under more than one statute.

Title VI matters may involve race, color, national origin, shared ancestry, racial harassment, retaliation, discipline, or unequal access.
Title IX matters may involve sex discrimination, sexual harassment or violence, athletics, pregnancy, retaliation, or grievance procedures.
Agency distinction: OCR enforces Titles VI and IX in federally funded education. The EEOC enforces Title VII in employment, reflected in the workplace chart above.
*OCR reported that one individual filed 7,339 complaints in FY 2022 and 5,590 in FY 2023, materially affecting the Title IX totals. A complaint may raise multiple issues. Complete statute-level figures for FY 2024–2025 were not available in the cited annual reporting, so they are not estimated here.

Services
Thoughtful guidance when the facts matter.
MOY PC helps educational institutions and workplaces build the capacity to prevent harm—and respond well when concerns arise.

Capacity without adding headcount
Ongoing Readiness Retainer
Reliable access to experienced, independent guidance before a concern becomes a crisis. MOY PC gives leaders a place to begin when staff capacity is limited, responsibilities are unclear, or an emerging matter requires a disciplined first response.
- On-call procedural guidance
- Early issue triage and response planning
- Scheduled policy and process review
- Priority access to investigations and training
Readiness is most valuable before the crisis
Specialized capacity, planned within the institution’s existing priorities.
Many schools, public agencies, and workplaces operate with limited personnel and tight budgets. A readiness retainer provides continuing access to investigation, training, and compliance experience without creating a full-time position or relying on outside counsel for every operational question. Training and prevention services may also be planned through appropriate professional-development, compliance, or training allocations, subject to each institution’s funding and procurement requirements.
A complementary role: MOY PC provides non-legal investigative, compliance, training, and resolution support. When legal advice is required, the organization’s counsel retains that role.
Section 05

Why MOY PC
Service is the foundation.
Trust is the work.
For more than 25 years, MOY PC has worked where policy meets real lives—helping school systems identify risk early, intervene thoughtfully, and keep students and families from falling through institutional gaps.
That work required far more than program delivery. It required regulatory oversight, federal and state grant compliance, audit preparedness, policy implementation, budget stewardship, mediation, cross-agency coordination, and clear documentation. Those same disciplines now anchor MOY PC’s civil-rights investigation and compliance practice.
1997Prevention in practice
MOY PC begins building intervention programs with schools—addressing attendance, substance use, teen pregnancy, dropout prevention, student welfare, and systemic barriers before they become crises.
2016The legal framework
Dahlia A. Lockhart-Williams earns her Juris Doctor, deepening a deliberate focus on regulation, compliance, policy, evidence, and the institutional decisions that prevent legal escalation.
TodayBroader institutional service
MOY PC brings this prevention-centered perspective to higher education and workplaces through independent investigations, informal resolution, training, policy review, and ongoing readiness support.
“The goal was never to spend every day in a courtroom. It was to help institutions build the judgment, documentation, and response systems that keep them out of one.”
Principal Investigator Dahlia A. Lockhart-Williams, JD, combines executive leadership, school administration, legal training, mediation, grant and regulatory compliance, and more than five years conducting complex civil-rights investigations. Her credentials support the work; the focus remains the result MOY PC delivers: a fair process and a reliable record the institution can act upon.
Service through the next chapter. Dahlia intends to complete her career doing the work she is most passionate about: helping institutions protect people, strengthen their practices, and respond with integrity. It is where her experience can be most effective—and where a career devoted to serving others can continue to make its greatest difference.
