The ongoing success of the Metropolitan Nashville Airport Authority (MNAA) is built on the vital support of a wide-ranging network of businesses, vendors and stakeholders who represent the broader Middle Tennessee community. We are focused on expanding opportunities and strengthening partnerships that benefit Tennessee’s economy. Therefore, MNAA operates its programs, services and activities in compliance with federal nondiscrimination laws including Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI).
Title VI prohibits discrimination on the grounds of race, color, or national origin, actual or perceived shared ancestry, ethnic characteristics, or citizenship often associated with a religious group under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance. Title 49 of the USC section 47123, “Nondiscrimination,” further prohibits airports who receive airport improvement program funding from engaging in discrimination based on sex and creed (religion).
Further, MNAA will make every effort to ensure nondiscrimination in all of its programs and activities, whether they are federally funded or not, and that services and benefits are fairly distributed to all people, regardless of race, color, or national origin. In addition, MNAA will facilitate meaningful participation in the transportation planning process in a nondiscriminatory manner.
At BNA®, these efforts are led by MNAA’s Office of Small Business Development and remain a central focus of our ongoing programs and activities.
