Civil rights files were maintained throughout the year and filed in compliance with Civil Rights policy. A anti-discrimination statement is printed on all publications, news releases, announcements, and monthly newsletters presented to the public. The Home Economist participated in a Civil Rights review on April 15, 2008 where files were reviewed and found to be compliant. Several efforts have been made to included non-traditional clientele in programs offered by the Home Economist such as programs for the elderly, groups with primarily Hispanic participants, and programs in locations where youth are not traditionally recruited as 4-H members.
In order to ensure compliance with Civil Rights policy the Home Economist maintains civil rights files and posts a non-discrimination statement on all educational publications, news releases, monthly newsletters, and announcements. The Home Economist works closely with office staff to ensure that efforts are being made to meet civil rights requirements. The Home Economist is working with the county program assistant to involve more non-traditional participants in county programs. Due to the high number of Spanish speaking citizens in Eddy County, the Home Economist tries to offer more bilingual resources.
