Title VI Program

Metro is committed to providing transit services that are fair, inclusive and free from discrimination. Through our Title VI program, we work to make sure no rider is denied access to Metro’s services or benefits because of their race, color or national origin. We also help community members understand their rights and offer a clear, supportive process for sharing concerns if they believe they have experienced discrimination.
