Non-Discrimination Policy
ADA Title II
SCCOG Transit is committed to complying with all Federal Americans with Disabilities (ADA regulations as well as the State of Colorado accessibility requirements. In 1990, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed by Congress and signed into law. This civil rights legislation entitles, among other requirements, persons with disabilities equal opportunity to participate in society. As such, public transportation agencies, like SCCOG, are required by law to provide the necessary ADA-compliant equipment and accommodations.
Title VI
SCCOG Transit is committed to ensuring that no individual is excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of its programs, activities or services, or subject to discrimination on the basis of race, color or national origin as per the Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
SCCOG Transit's employees are responsible for carrying out the commitment of non-discrimination including the requirements of Title VI.
This includes the following:
- To ensure that the level and quality of transportation services are provided to all;
- To promote full and fair participation in transportation decision making;
- To ensure meaningful access to SCCOG Transit's services by persons with limited English proficiency;
