It is our policy to abide by all federal, state, and local laws concerning discrimination; and against any beneficiary of programs financially assisted under Title I of the Workforce investment Act of 1998 (WIA) on the basis of beneficiary’s citizenship/status as a lawfully admitted immigrant authorized to work in the United States, or his or her participation in any WIA Title financially assisted program or activity. The recipient must not discriminate in any of the following areas:
