Public Affairs Documents for the Field

NRCS Logos

Below are two color and two black and white versions of the NRCS Logo for your use in preparing public information materials. Proper use of the agency logo is referenced in the 260 Series of the General Manual

 

Statement of Non-discrimination

Non-discrimination Statement

The USDA non-discrimination statement is required on all materials produced by USDA agencies for public information, public education, and public distribution. The most recent version of the statement can be found at www.usda.gov. Click on non-discrimination at the bottom of the page.

"The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits discrimination in all its programs and activities on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, and where applicable, sex, marital status, familial status, parental status, religion, sexual orientation, genetic information, political beliefs, reprisal, or because all or a part of an individual's income is derived from any public assistance program. (Not all prohibited bases apply to all programs.) Persons with disabilities who require alternative means for communication of program information (Braille, large print, audiotape, etc.) should contact USDA's TARGET Center at (202) 720-2600 (voice and TDD). To file a complaint of discrimination write to USDA, Director, Office of Civil Rights, 1400 Independence Avenue, S.W., Washington, D.C. 20250-9410 or call (800) 795-3272 (voice) or (202) 720-6382 (TDD). USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer."

If the material is too small to permit the full non-discrimination statement to be included, the material will, at a minimum, include the statement:
         “USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer.”
