Federal Accessibility Legislation

Federal Accessibility Legislation comprises laws designed to ensure individuals with disabilities have equal access and opportunities in areas like employment, transportation, and public services. These laws mandate that government agencies and certain private entities provide accessible facilities, technology, and communication methods, removing barriers that could impede participation. They aim to promote independence and inclusion by establishing standards and requirements, such as accessible building design and the use of assistive technologies, ensuring that people with disabilities can fully engage in society on equal footing.
