The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
Additional information
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, as amended, is a civil rights law that protects individuals with disabilities from discrimination. As an entity under Title II of the ADA, Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ complies with this mandate by providing access to services, programs and activities, and employment.
