Civil Rights Unites: Eliminating Discrimination
April 10 @ 6:00 pm
On April 10, 2025, at 6:00 p.m., join CHRO at the Burroughs-Saden Library at 925 Broad Street in Bridgeport to learn about the Disparity Study, which aims to eliminate disparities in the awarding of millions of dollars in taxpayer-funded contracts.
In 2021, the General assembly ordered a study to assess whether the state has “achieved the goal of facilitating the participation in state contracts of small and minority owned businesses.” That study was published in January of this year.
