NON-DISCRIMINATION AND
SEXUAL HARASSMENT
It is the policy of the Cabrillo Community College District to provide an environment free of
unlawful discrimination or discriminatory harassment, including sexual harassment.
Discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry,
physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, pregnancy or pregnancy disability, genetic
information, marital status, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, age, or sexual
orientation of any person, or because he or she is perceived to have one or more of the foregoing
characteristics in the District’s programs, activities and work environment are prohibited.
Retaliation against any individual who makes a complaint of discrimination or harassment or
who participates in an investigation of discrimination or harassment is prohibited whether or
not the allegations are eventually found to be true. If the District determines that retaliation
has occurred, it will take all reasonable steps to stop such conduct.
Individuals who engage in discriminatory acts or harassment, or retaliatory conduct are
subject to disciplinary action up to and including expulsion from the College or termination
from employment.
The Superintendent/President shall establish procedures for students, employees, and other
members of the campus community that provide notice of how to make complaints of unlawful
discrimination or harassment, and for the investigation and resolution of such complaints. Such
procedures shall include posting and dissemination of this policy to students and employees.
