Section 367.3 - Anti-discrimination

(a) Every probation director shall advise their respective staff of the laws prohibiting discrimination against protected individuals. Under New York State Executive Law, article 15 (known as the Human Rights Law) discrimination against individuals who have or who are perceived to have disabilities is prohibited. The Human Rights Law of the City of New York also prohibits discrimination on the basis of an individual's disability or the perception of a disability. AIDS and HIV infection are considered to be disabilities under the terms of these acts.

(b) Every probation director shall establish written procedures for reviewing client claims of discrimination because of AIDS, HIV infection, or the perception that the client has AIDS or HIV infection.

(c) Nothing shall preclude differential treatment in order to provide adequate and appropriate treatment or probation services. Specialized caseloads may be established, if deemed appropriate. The confidentiality of individuals receiving such treatment or within such caseloads shall be preserved.
