Disability Civil Rights

Disability Civil Rights encompass laws and policies that ensure individuals with disabilities have equal access, opportunity, and protection under the law. They prohibit discrimination based on disability in areas like employment, housing, education, and public accommodations. The most well-known law, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), mandates that workplaces, businesses, and government services make reasonable accommodations to promote inclusion and independence. These rights aim to remove barriers, promote dignity, and ensure people with disabilities can participate fully in all aspects of life without facing unfair treatment.
