To the Editor:

As the acting executive director of an agency under attack in these pages, I would like to offer a few comments on the column, “Time To Confront A Useless CHRO,” which appeared in the Sept. 8 issue of the Connecticut Law Tribune. I have spent almost 30 years in public service, first as a police officer and the last 22 years with the Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities. I have had the pleasure of serving as an investigator, regional manager, attorney, managing attorney, and, for the last three months, acting executive director of the agency. I’m only one example of the 100 employees who are committed to the CHRO and the work that we do.
