ADA for State and Local Government (Title II)

Per the ADA people with disabilities have the right to participate in all programs, services, and activities, but sometimes people with disabilities need support or a change in the way a program typically operates to participate. We will discuss a municipality's responsibility to provide reasonable modification of policy (e.g., curbside delivery) and auxiliary aids and services (e.g., sign language interpreters) so that people with disabilities can participate in all programs and services.

This training is offered as a part of the ADA Coalition of Connecticut’s ADA Coordinator certification series for CT ADA Coordinators. Credits can be applied toward the national certificate.
