The ADA prohibits discrimination based on disability. Under the ADA, it is illegal to discriminate against someone because of their disability. For example, a fitness center could not exclude a person who uses a wheelchair from a workout class because they cannot do all of the exercises in the same way.

Under the Act, a plaintiff is required to present evidence that he or she (1) suffers from a disability, (2) is a qualified individual, and (3) was subjected to an adverse employment action because of the disability.

The ADA only prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability. It makes it unlawful to refuse to hire a qualified applicant with a disability because he is disabled or because a reasonable accommodation is required to make it possible for this person to perform essential job functions.

Title II prohibits discrimination against qualified individuals in all programs, activities, and services of public entities. Public entities (DCYF) are required to make all their programs, services, and activities accessible for individuals with disabilities (Program Accessibility).

It is a violation of the ADA to fail to provide reasonable accommodation to the known physical or mental limitations of a qualified individual with a disability, unless to do so would impose an undue hardship on the operation of your business.

Violations of the ADA can be filed as a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). The EEOC enforces federal ADA disability discrimination laws, including the failure to provide reasonable accommodations.

An individual with a disability is defined by the ADA as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment.
