Episode 78: Inside OCR: A Conversation with Beth Gellman-Beer
Episode 73
Thursday, 16 October, 2025
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is a critical part of the US Department of Education, and today on the Law and Education Podcast, we are discussing the ins and outs of the OCR. We are joined by a partner at Evergreen Education Solutions and former regional director at the US Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, Beth Gellman-Beer. Tuning in, you'll hear all about the OCR, what they do, what Beth worked on during her 18 years in the OCR, and more. We delve into how the OCR has changed since Beth's time there before discussing how resolution agreements have changed over the last year. Beth even walks us through steps to take if you find out you're under investigation, how schools can figure out what civil rights areas to focus on, and where she sees OCR in the near future. Finally, our guest tells us about what's been going on recently with the OCR and what she's been doing since she left. Thanks for listening!
