Hi all --

Welcome to the Civil Rights Division Association (CRDA) membership site.  The CRDA is a non-partisan organization for current and former employees of the Civil Rights Division, and current and former DOJ employees who have worked on Division-related issues. 

As we all know, the Civil Rights Division is facing tremendous turmoil right now, and it seems that hundreds of employees will leave.  We hope the CRDA can be a source of community for networking, and mutual support.  CRDA also has a (private) LinkedIn group -- https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14635340/.  You can join that group if you're interested in job postings and other posts via LinkedIn.  (But please also join us here; this site is to help organize communication and membership.  We rolled it out in January 2022. If you're new to the CRDA, just click on the "Become Member" button, on the top right of this page, and tell us who you are; you'll hear back when your membership is approved.    

Once you're a member, the membership directory is available under "Contacts" and is searchable.  Information is posted only for those members who have approved making their names public, which is well under half our members.  If you're name doesn't appear and you would like it to, just click on your profile (upper right) and then click on “edit” – and adjust the “profile visibility” to match your preference.

The CRDA has not needed to collect dues in many years, but if that changes, we'll use this site to facilitate.  And if we are able (knock wood) to sponsor an in-person reunion or other event, it'll be organized here too. 

Thanks for participating!  Feedback on the site is welcome; just email
