It is illegal to refuse or restrict service at any place of public accommodation on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, national origin or marital status. This includes restaurants, hotels, theaters, parks, hospitals, nightclubs, health spas and all establishments located within Phoenix city limits that offer services to the general public. The Equal Opportunity Department investigates complaints. Call the Equal Opportunity Department Compliance and Enforcement Division at 602-262-7486 or the TTY relay at 602-534-1557 for further assistance.
