Special Needs and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
January 16, 2015, Hartford
Are YOU breaking the law without realizing it in your after school or summer program? Sometimes simple awareness can save your program thousands of dollars in legal fees and litigation. Assistant United States Attorney Lisa Perkins, will provide an overview of titles II and III of the ADA and present case studies involving the failure to accommodate children with disabilities in summer camps and afterschool programs. She will provide guidance on what the ADA requires of aftercare programs and best practices when a program receives a request to accommodate a child with a disability.
