Title VI Compliance

Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is a Federal law that protects individuals from discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin in any program or activity that receives Federal funds or other Federal financial assistance. The City of Lewiston is committed to complying with Title VI and has adopted a Title VI Policy (PDF), which includes a discrimination complaint procedure.

Discrimination

In addition to complying with Title VI, the City of Lewiston adopted Ordinance Number 4614 (PDF) in 2014, which ordinance prohibits discrimination based on an individual’s actual or perceived race, color, national origin, ancestry, religion, creed, sex, age, marital or familial status, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity/expression.

Access & Reasonable Accommodation

The City of Lewiston is committed to providing access and reasonable accommodation in its services, programs, and activities and encourages persons with disabilities to participate. If you anticipate needing any type of accommodation or have questions about physical access to City facilities, please contact the Title VI Compliance Officer at least 48 hours in advance of any activity or program.
