Oregon CROWN Act, State of Oregon Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair (CROWN Act)
The CROWN act prohibits discrimination based on protective hairstyles. Protective hairstyles are defined as “hair color or manner of wearing hair that includes, but is not limited to, braids, regardless of whether the braids are created with extensions or styled with adornments, locs, and twists.” The law also expands the definition of “race” under ORS 659A to include “physical characteristics that are historically associated with race, including but not limited to natural hair, hair texture, hair type, and protective hairstyles.” The CROWN act specifically applies to Oregon employer and public schools.
Textured Tending Process Guide, Oregon Child Welfare (ODHS) ODHS Child Welfare knows that hair and skin care routines are an important part of development for all children, particularly when those routines occur with birth family.
When children experiencing foster care are unable to participate in those routines with their birth family, their resource parent must learn and adapt to caring for the specific hair and skin care needs. Sometimes, resource parents are unsure how to meet the hair and skin care needs of the children they are caring for and are in need of additional supports.
