Members and civilians who choose to go directly to the CHRC do not need to exhaust internal grievance and harassment processes first. The CHRC process applies to both new and existing complaints.
Learn about this new process and how to file directly with the CHRC by consulting the DND/CAF Ombudsman’s website.
