Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

This legislation provides guidelines for ensuring ALL members of our society have opportunities to live, not just exist, in our country. The ADA is a very important key to open those doors of opportunity. It applies to business, government and educational institutions as well as public accomodations, such as shopping malls and even recreational sites.

Employment Rights & Responsibilities

More and more people with disabilities are finding employment that utilizes their abilities rather than focus on their DISabilities.

General Access Issues

Using all the public accomodations is something most people take for granted. If you have mobility impairments, steps, stools, or even doorways or hallways can keep you out. Federal laws have designated codes and construction guidelines to ensure mobility impaired persons can get into the same places as non-impaired persons. Certain reasonableness standards allow variances, but what is reasonable?

Disabled Veterans

Veterans have specific federal and state laws that affect their programs.
