Title vi
42 U.S.C § 2000d et seq., was enacted as part of the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin in programs and activities receiving federal financial assistance. Title VI has been interpreted to mean that individuals who do not speak English as their primary language and who have limited ability to read, write, speak or understand English are considered limited English proficient (LEP) and have the right to receive language assistance in order to assume meaningful access to services or benefits provided by agencies and service providers that receive Federal funds. Language assistance means oral interpreter services or translations of written material.
