6. Each recipient of federal financial assistance must have on file an assurance that the program will be conducted in
compliance with all nondiscriminatory provisions as required in 45 CFR 80. This is usually a standard part of the
contract language for DOEA recipients and their sub - grantees, 45 CFR 80.4 (a).
Is the race, sex, and national origin of the staff reflective of the general population? For example, if 10% of the
population is Hispanic, is there a comparable percentage of Hispanic staff?
8. Where there is a significant variation between the race, sex or ethnic composition of the clients and their availability in
the population, the program/facility has the responsibility to determine the reasons for such variation and take whatever
action may be necessary to correct any discrimination. Some legitimate disparities may exist when programs are
sanctioned to serve target populations such as elderly or disabled persons, 45 CFR
80.3 (b) (6).
9. Do eligibility requirements unlawfully exclude persons in protected groups from the provision of services or
employment? Evidence of such may be indicated in staff and client representation (Questions 3 and 4) and also
through on -site record analysis of persons who applied but were denied services or employment, 45 CFR 80.3 (a)
and 45 CFR 80.1 (b) (2).
10. Participants or clients must be provided services such as medical, nursing and dental care, laboratory services,
physical and recreational therapies, counseling and social services without regard to race, sex, color, national origin,
religion, age or disability. Courtesy titles, appointment scheduling and accuracy of record keeping must be applied
uniformly and without regard to race, sex, color, national origin, religion, age or disability. Entrances, waiting
rooms, reception areas, restrooms and other facilities must also be equally available to all clients, 45 CFR
80.3 (b).
11. For in- patient services, residents must be assigned to rooms, wards, etc., without regard to race, color, national
origin or disability. Also, residents must not be asked whether they are willing to share accommodations with
persons of a different race, color, national origin, or disability, 45 CFR 80.3 (a).
12. The program/facility and all services must be accessible to participants and applicants, including those persons who
may not speak English. In geographic areas where a significant population of non - English speaking people live,
program accessibility may include the employment of bilingual staff. In other areas, it is sufficient to have a policy
59/70
Contract AA -1229
or plan for service, such as a current list of names and telephone numbers of bilingual individuals who will assist in
the provision of services, 45 CFR 80.3 (a).
13. Programs /facilities must make information regarding the nondiscriminatory provisions of Title VI available to their
participants, beneficiaries or any other interested parties. This should include information on their right to file a
complaint of discrimination with either the Florida Department of Elder Affairs or the U.S. Department of HHS.
The information may be supplied verbally or in writing to every individual, or may be supplied through the use of
an equal opportunity policy poster displayed in a public area of the facility, 45 CFR 80.6 (d).
14. Report number of discrimination complaints filed against the program/facility. Indicate the basis, e.g., race, color,
creed, sex, age, national origin, disability, retaliation; the issues involved, e.g., services or employment, placement,
termination, etc. Indicate the civil rights law or policy alleged to have been violated along with the name and
address of the local, state or federal agency with whom the complaint has been filed. Indicate the current status, e.g.,
settled, no reasonable cause found, failure to conciliate, failure to cooperate, under review, etc.
15. The program/facility must be physically accessible to disabled individuals. Physical accessibility includes
designated parking areas, curb cuts or level approaches, ramps and adequate widths to entrances. The lobby,
public telephone, restroom facilities, water fountains, information and admissions offices should be accessible.
Door widths and traffic areas of administrative offices, cafeterias, restrooms, recreation areas, counters and
serving lines should be observed for accessibility. Elevators should be observed for door width, and Braille or
raised numbers. Switches and controls for light, heat, ventilation, fire alarms, and other essentials should be
installed at an appropriate height for mobility impaired individuals.
16. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires that a recipient of federal financial assistance conduct a
self - evaluation to identify any accessibility barriers. Self - evaluation is a four step process:
With the assistance of a disabled individual /organization, evaluate current practices and policies which do not
comply with Section 504.
Modify policies and practices that do not meet Section 504 requirements.
Take remedial steps to eliminate any discrimination that has been identified.
Maintain self - evaluation on file. (This checklist may be used to satisfy this requirement if these four steps
have been followed.), 45 CFR 84.6.
17. Programs or facilities that employ 15 or more persons must adopt grievance procedures that incorporate
appropriate due process standards and provide for the prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any
action prohibited by Section 504.45 CFR 84.7 (b).
18. Programs or facilities that employ 15 or more persons must designate at least one person to coordinate efforts to
comply with Section 504.45 CFR 84.7 (a).

nondiscrimination on the basis of disability. This includes recruitment material, notices for hearings, newspaper
ads, and other appropriate written communication, 45 CFR 84.8 (a).
20. Programs /facilities that employ 15 or more persons must provide appropriate auxiliary aids to persons with
impaired sensory, manual or speaking skills where necessary. Auxiliary aids may include, but are not limited to,
interpreters for hearing impaired individuals, taped or Braille materials, or any alternative resources that can be
used to provide equally effective services, (45 CFR 84.52 (d).
21. Programs /facilities with 50 or more employees and $50,000 in federal contracts must develop, implement and
maintain a written affirmative action compliance program in accordance with Executive Order 11246.41 CFR 60
and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended.
