Non-Discrimination Policy

Our commitment

Kubana does not tolerate discrimination, harassment, or retaliation in its programs, activities, services, employment practices, or volunteer engagement.

Kubana prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, ethnicity, language, immigration or citizenship status, religion, creed, sex, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital or family status, veteran or military status, income or socioeconomic status, or any other status protected by applicable federal, state, or local law.

No person shall, on any of these bases, be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or otherwise subjected to discrimination under a Kubana program, service, or activity. Kubana strives to remove barriers through culturally responsive services, language access where feasible, and reasonable accommodations for people with disabilities.

Kubana affirms the right of 2SLGBTQIA+ community members and all other marginalized groups to participate safely and authentically, free from harassment, discrimination, or harm.

Kubana does not tolerate retaliation against anyone who raises a concern in good faith or participates in an investigation. The organization periodically reviews this policy and its practices for alignment with applicable civil-rights requirements.
