EQUAL OPPORTUNITY IS THE LAW
It is against the law for Northeast Missouri Workforce Development Board and its recipients, who are receiving Federal financial assistance, to discriminate on the following basis:
- If you are enrolled in a WIOA program or if you are employed as a staff person in an agency administering a WIOA program, you cannot be denied benefits or services, be segregated or treated any differently from other participants or staff, nor be discriminated against in any way 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, or political affiliation or belief, or, against any beneficiary of, applicant to, or participant in programs financially assisted under Title 1 of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, on the basis of the individual’s citizenship status or participation in any WIOA Title 1-financially assisted program or activity.
