title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (Title I) 

(42 U.S.C. 5309). Section 109 provides that no person in the United 

States shall, on the ground of race, color, national origin, religion, 

or sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or 

be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity funded in 

whole or in part with Federal financial assistance. Section 109 does not 

directly prohibit discrimination on the bases of age or disability, and 

the regulations in this part 6 do not apply to age or disability 

discrimination in Title I programs. Instead, section 109 directs that 

the prohibitions against discrimination on the basis of age under the 

Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (42 U.S.C. 6101-6107) (Age Discrimination 

Act) and the prohibitions against discrimination on the basis of 

disability under section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 

U.S.C. 794) (Section 504) apply to programs or activities funded in 

whole or in part with Federal financial assistance. Thus, the 

regulations of 24 CFR part 8, which implement Section 504 for HUD 

programs, and the regulations of 24 CFR part 146, which implement the 

Age Discrimination Act for HUD programs, apply to disability and age 

discrimination in Title I programs.
