Non-Discrimination Policy
Somerset Academy Early Learning Center, Inc. is committed to providing equal opportunity in all aspects of our operations, including admissions, client services, referrals, and employment practices. All services, referrals, and employment decisions are made without regard to race, color, religious creed, disability, ancestry, national origin, age, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, marital status, socioeconomic status, or any other characteristic protected by federal, state, or local law.
Our commitment to nondiscrimination extends to ensuring equal access to services for qualified individuals with disabilities. Program services will be made accessible using practical and economically feasible methods, including equipment modifications, provision of assistive aids, and alternative service locations. Structural modifications are considered only as a last resort among the available options to achieve accessibility.
We also uphold a policy of nondiscrimination in our employment practices. This includes recruitment, hiring, promotion, compensation, training, and all other terms and conditions of employment. We strive to maintain a workplace where diversity is celebrated, and every employee has the opportunity to thrive in an inclusive environment.
