The Office of Human Relations Program's mission is to develop and implement strategies and programs which promote equal opportunity and respect for all members of the UMBC campus community.

This will be accomplished through:

• Policy Development and Dissemination - In cooperating with campus governance and in compliance with federal laws and USM Board of Regent's policies, the Office of Human Relations Programs will publish policies which codify the University's position and operating parameters regarding human relations issues.
• Education and Training - The Director of Human Relations is available to provide information and skills training in various human relations topics such as Sexual Harassment Prevention, Conflict Management, Title IX matters, ADA/Section 504 awareness, interpersonal and group communication, fair employment practices and leadership development.
• Conflict/Dispute Management - Members of the campus community may contact the Human Relations Manager for assistance in the management and or resolution of interpersonal and group conflict. This may include complaint investigation, mediation, facilitation, and other dispute resolution strategies.
