Civil rights and accessibility
Our Policy
The Department of Licensing (DOL) is dedicated to providing accessible services and facilities.
It is our policy not to deny or exclude any individual from a benefit of any program, activity, or access to facilities based on race, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, low income, or limited English proficiency (LEP). In addition to our longstanding commitment to excellent customer service, we are bound by a number of nondiscrimination laws, regulations, and executive orders regarding service delivery and public facility access. These include Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987, Executive Order 12898, Executive Order 13166, and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, as amended.
