EQUAL OPPORTUNITY
"Equal Opportunity is the law"

It is against the law for this recipient of Federal financial assistance to discriminate on the following bases:

• Against any individual in the United States, on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions, sex stereotyping, transgender status, and gender identity), national origin (including limited English proficiency), age, disability, political affiliation or belief; or
• Against any beneficiary of, applicant to, or participate in programs financially assisted under Title I of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, on the basis of the individual's citizenship status or participation in any WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity.

The recipient must not discriminate in any of the following areas:

• ​Deciding who will be admitted, or have access to any WIOA Title I-financially assisted program or activity; Providing opportunities in, or treating any person with regard to, such a program or activity; or

• Making employment decisions in the administration of, or in connection with, such a program or activity.

Recipients of federal financial assistance must take reasonable steps to ensure that communications with individuals with disabilities are as effective as communications with others. This means that, upon request and at no cost to the individual, recipients are required to provide appropriate auxiliary aids and services to qualified individuals with disabilities.
