Title VI
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (found at 42 U.S.C. § 2000(d) and the following sections) prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in programs and activities receiving Federal financial assistance. Specifically, Title VI provides that “no person in the United States shall, under the grounds of race, color or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”
The Town of Leesburg, Virginia, receives federal funding through multiple federal grants, including grants directly to the Town, and grants under which the Town is a sub-recipient (for example, federal grants administered through the Commonwealth of Virginia and its agencies, or through the County of Loudoun). As a recipient or sub-recipient of federal funds, the Town must comply with the nondiscrimination requirements of Title VI, the regulations and executive orders issued pursuant to Title VI, applicable grant assurances required by federal agencies providing grant funds, and individual grant conditions. The Town has developed policies, programs, and practices to ensure compliance with the nondiscrimination requirements of Title VI.
The Title VI Policy and Implementation Plan details how the Town incorporates these nondiscrimination policies and procedures into Town operations. This document will be updated periodically to address changes in law and circumstances.
