Title VI Civil Rights

What is Title VI?

The Transit Authority of River City (TARC) grants equal access to its programs and services to all citizens.

Title VI is a section of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 requiring that “No person in the United States shall on 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.” Title VI does not address gender discrimination. It only covers race, color, and national origin. Other civil rights laws prohibit gender discrimination.
