Civil Rights Self-Assessment:
A Tool for Illinois
Community Colleges

As sub-recipients of Federal funds, it is your responsibility to ensure the protection of rights for individuals associated with your community college. The Illinois Community College Board is responsible for conducting on-site reviews of potential non-compliance with civil rights laws.

Civil Rights Self-Assessment: A Tool for Illinois Community Colleges is designed to assist your community college in preparing for a review.

This self-assessment tool allows your community college to review the five major civil rights laws:

  • The Civil Rights Act,
  • Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act,
  • Title IX,
  • The Age Discrimination Act, and
  • Americans with Disabilities Act.

After reviewing policies and practices relating to these laws, your community college will have an improved understanding of how to comply with the Office for Civil Rights requirements.
