The Department of Justice has unveiled a sweeping new enforcement strategy—the Civil Rights Fraud Initiative—that dramatically expands the scope of False Claims Act liability into the realm of civil rights compliance. Unveiled in May 2025, the Initiative empowers DOJ prosecutors and private whistleblowers to pursue treble damages and penalties against organizations that receive federal funds but are alleged to have violated anti-discrimination laws.
Join Buchalter attorneys Joshua Robbins, Sherry Haus, and Roger Scott for a timely and practical discussion of what this Initiative means for institutions across the public and private sectors—including universities, healthcare systems, contractors, and nonprofits. We’ll cover key legal risks, compliance strategies, and what organizations should be doing now to prepare for this unprecedented expansion in civil enforcement. Whether you're in-house counsel, a compliance officer, or a university administrator, this webinar will provide critical insights into how to navigate the shifting legal and political landscape.
