The SFMTA Office of Civil Rights (OCR) brings together all the agency sections working to implement Civil Rights and Equity programs so they can collaborate with and support each other. Previously, these sections operated out of different divisions. Bringing them together under one division breaks down silos and facilitates collaboration and coordination.
The sections are Contract Compliance, Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO), Internal Investigations Unit (IIU), the Ombuds Office, the Office of Racial Equity and Belonging (OREB), and the Title VI Program and Regulatory Affairs. Accessible Services section will remain within the Taxis, Access and Mobility Services (TAMS) division but will have a dotted line reporting relationship to the OCR.
