Triangle's Human Rights Project is a statewide attorney referral program designed to provide names of attorneys to victims from every part of the state. The Human Rights Project provides needed legal advice, representation, or other services. Triangle also is available to refer counselors and other social and support groups for victims around Michigan. Triangle staff may work closely with law enforcement or judicial officials to ensure that a police report is filed and filed properly, or that a personal protection order is filed in time to protect them. Sometimes law enforcement officials are not supportive or helpful to glbt victims and in many cases these officials re-victimize the survivor by refusing to take a complaint, file a police report, or may even harass or attack that victim.
Triangle works actively with law enforcement officials and offers trainings for police.
This creates better relationships between the glbt community and the police and to prevent further victimization. With permission from the victim, Triangle may also contact employers, or other agencies to seek resolution to a problem that is not being addressed by law enforcement or union representation. Triangle, with permission of the victim, will sometimes notify the media about certain anti-glbt incidents. This focuses public attention to the threats that exist for glbt people and exerts pressure on communities, law enforcement officials, and policy makers to address the situation.
