INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CIVIL RIGHTS COMPLIANCE CHECKLIST
Describe the geographic service area such as a district, county, city or other locality. If the program /facility
serves a specific target population such as adolescents, describe the target population. Also, define the type of
service provided.
2. Enter the percent of the population served by race and sex. The population served includes persons in the
geographical area for which services are provided such as a city, county or other regional area. Population
statistics can be obtained from local chambers of commerce, libraries, or any publication from the 1980 Census
containing Florida population statistics. Include the source of your population statistics. ( "Other" races include
Asian/Pacific Islanders and American Indian/Alaskan Natives.)
3. Enter the total number of full -time staff and their percent by race, sex and disability. Include the effective date
of your summary.
4. Enter the total number of clients who are enrolled, registered or currently served by the program or facility, and
list their percent by race, sex and disability. Include the date that enrollment was counted.
5. Enter the total number of advisory board members and their percent by race, sex, and disability. If there is no
advisory or governing board, leave this section blank.
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).
7. 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?
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).
�. 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

43/59
Contract Number KH- 1472

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 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,

current status, e.g., settled, no reasonable cause found, failure to conciliate, failure to cooperate, under review,
etc.

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:
a. With the assistance of a disabled individual /organization, evaluate current practices and policies which do
not comply with Section 504.
b. Modify policies and practices that do not meet Section 504 requirements.
c. Take remedial steps to eliminate any discrimination that has been identified.
d. 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.

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).

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 $50,000.00 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.

ontact clients to offer program enrollment, and will proceed with activation. The Lead Agency will enter subsequent
enrollments into CIRTS to reflect client status.
5. In accordance with the DOEA Program & Services Handbook, consumers who were screened using Form 701 S and
received a priority
score or rank of 3, 4 or 5 with a CIRTS Enrollment Screen program status code set to "APCL" and subsequently assessed
using 701B and receive a new priority score or rank of 1 or 2 must be returned to the APCL to allow for prioritization of
other consumers on the APCL with priority score or
ranks of 3, 4 or 5.

B. Statewide Medicaid Managed Care Long Term Care Program Clients

to the Lead Agency. ARTT referrals will be forwarded directly the Lead Agency. APS cases are to be served for a
maximum of 31 calendar days. If additional time is justified, the case management agency will staff the case with the
:alliance to obtain the extension needed.

4. The Lead Agency will enter ACTV enrollment under their provider number in CIRTS. In addition, service codes will
be entered by service date for all services provided. If a service(s) is not provided as required under the care plan, an
NDP code will need to be entered in CIRTS and the case notes under the client file should document the reason for non-
delivery of such service(s).
IV. Aging Out Consumers:
A. All "Aging Out" consumers will be referred by DCF to the ADRC for enrollment into the corresponding aged
program managed by the Alliance.
B. Consumers active in the CCDA and HCDA programs that are turning 60 and are eligible for CCE and/or HCE will be
opened in the corresponding aged program managed by the Alliance if funding is available. If funding is available, these
