It is the goal of Metro Parks and our ranger program to provide services to all park visitors and central Ohio residents with due regard for the cultural, racial, ethnic or other differences that make central Ohio a diverse community. Metro Parks policy is to provide services and enforcement fairly and without discrimination toward any individual or group of people. Metro Parks prohibits the use of any bias based profiling in its ranger program. Such prohibition is applicable in all self-initiated field contacts and in responding to citizen complaints or requests for assistance. Below is our annual report that documents the review of this policy.
