Disability Laws |
The
Americans with Disabilities Act
gives civil rights protection to individuals with
disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the
basis of race, color, sex, national origin, age, and
religion. It guarantees equal opportunity for individuals
with disabilities in public accommodations, employment,
transportation, State and local government services, and
telecommunications.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973 is enforced by
the Office of Civil Rights (OCR) under the guidelines of the
Department of Justice. This legislation protects the civil
and constitutional rights of people with disabilities. It
prohibits organizations which receive federal funds from
discriminating against otherwise qualified individuals on
the sole basis of a disability.
