The Civil Rights Specialists provide technical assistance, support
and guidance to MnDOT in carrying out an effective civil rights
program. The objective is to
ensure fair and equitable treatment
of all persons employed by MnDOT or affected by its activities.
The civil rights program is cross cutting and encompasses all
program areas, including planning, environment, right-of-way, and construction.
The Civil Rights Specialists ensure statewide compliance with MnDOT's federal non- discrimination and affirmative action obligations as a condition
of continued federal funding for highway construction. Major areas of responsibility include the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE)
Program, Contract Compliance, On-The-Job Training, Title VI Non-Discrimination,
Affirmative Action, and Native American Issues.
