You will then be given an opportunity to present your complaint to the supervisor of the employee or procedure which is the basis of your complaint. The supervisor will hear your complaint and respond to it as promptly as is practical.
If you are not satisfied with the supervisor’s decision, you may present your complaint to the Executive Director or the Executive Director’s designee, who will hear your complaint and respond to it as promptly as is practical.
If you are not satisfied with the Director or their designee’s decision, you may bring your complaint to the Grievance Committee of the Board of Directors. You may have, at your own expense, an attorney or other person present for your complaint to the Grievance Committee.
