Charlotte-Mecklenburg Community Relations is made up of five divisions: Administration, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Program, Community Affairs, Dispute Settlement and Fair Housing. Each division works to advance the mission to empower, collaborate, engage and promote opportunities to create positive outcomes throughout the community.

Staff works closely with the Community Relations Committee, a 45-member team of professionals and volunteers who provide counsel to the Community Relations department and serve as civil rights and human relations advocates.
