Retaliation Solution
We filed a complaint on Anna's behalf with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination ("MCAD") against the company and the General Manager. By the time the complaint was served, the General Manager had left the state and was no long affiliated with the company. He never responded to the complaint or participated in the litigation.
During the MCAD proceeding, we went to mediation and were able to obtain a settlement for Anna to compensate her for the harm she suffered as a result of reporting sexual harassment in the workplace.

Postscript
Anna was able to get back on her feet as a result of the settlement, and also get some measure of satisfaction that the employer had been held accountable for its indifference and retaliatory actions.
If you are in a similar situation, remember that both the harassment itself and retaliation are unlawful. You have the right to report inappropriate behavior, and to be free from threats, intimidation, demotion or termination as a result of your good faith report.
