What is the Civil Rights Compliance Training Requirement?

The Office on Civil Rights (OCR) offers civil rights training to assist sub-recipients in meeting their federal civil rights obligations. The online training, which consists of six segments and self-tests, provides an overview of applicable non-discrimination laws and the general civil rights obligations that are tied to grants awarded by the Department of Justice.  The civil rights training modules offered through OCR can be accessed at https://ojp.gov/about/ocr/assistance.htm.  The sub-grantee must review these training modules at least once per grant cycle and must view the civil rights overview, standard assurances modules, and the module on obligations to provide services to Limited English Proficient (LEP) individuals.
