WHAT'S ADA?


ADA stands for Americans With Disabilities Act. It is a civil rights law.
The ADA idea is to reward ability. It says persons with abilities and physical or mental impairments, and their associates have full and equal access to jobs, government programs and business services.
The ADA has several ways to make sure the idea of full and equal access is followed. First way is by prohibitIng intentional discrimination. Second way is by prohibiting unintentional discrimination. Third way is by requiring reasonable accommodation in employment. Fourth way is by requiring the opportunity to participate. Fifth way is by requiring integration. Sixth way is by requiring the effective communication related to providing the auxiliary aid. Seventh way is by requiring physical access. Eight way is by requiring removal of communication barriers.
