Information

Referral History:

Over the last 15 years, the County has been a recipient of a federal grant that requires us to follow certain guidelines in order to be eligible for the grant. A recipient is any entity organization that receives financial assistance, either directly or through another entity as a sub-recipient, from the Department of Justice (Office of Justice Programs (OJP), Office on Violence Against Women (OVW), the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS)) under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968 (Safe Streets Act), or the Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) or otherwise subject to the civil rights provisions of the Safe Streets Act.

Referral Update:

In order to maintain the federal grant, the County must create and submit an Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) Plan. It is a comprehensive workforce report that the County must develop and implement in an ongoing manner as a condition of receiving Department of Justice funding subject to the civil rights provisions of the Safe Streets Act. A written EEO Plan is a component of a recipient's EEO Program which describes in detail the recipient's efforts to ensure equal employment opportunities to men and women regardless of sex, race or national origin.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

RECEIVE and ACCEPT the County's most recent EEO Plan

Fiscal Impact (if any):

None
