The American's with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, is a civil rights law mandating equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a law that makes it illegal to discriminate against anyone with a disability. Discrimination means you are treated unfairly or unequally because you have a disability. Discrimination also occurs when you are denied a necessary reasonable accommodation.
EEOC notes that appropriate professionals include, but are not limited to, doctors (including psychiatrists), psychologists, nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, vocational rehabilitation specialists, and licensed mental health professionals.
Complaints will be accepted in writing and may be filed with MCDOT's ADA Coordinator. Complaint forms can be emailed, or mailed, upon request. A signed, written complaint must be submitted within 180 days of the alleged discriminator act (or latest occurrence).
The ADA does not apply to religious organizations and private clubs, entities which historically have been exempt from federal civil rights laws. Places of worship and other facilities controlled by a religious organization, such as a school or day care center, are not subject to the ADA Standards.
The ADA applies to people within the jurisdiction of the US. You have the same rights to reasonable accommodation as anyone else as a tourist, illegal alien, green card holder, or citizen.
