About the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
What is a disability?
Housing Laws
Education Laws
People with disabilities often do not have the same access to healthcare and quality of services as those without disabilities.
The Center for Disease Control says that people with disabilities are more likely than people without disabilities to report:
- Poorer overall health
- Less access to healthcare
If you are a provider, you need to follow the Americans with Disabilities Act to improve access to your services and facilities.
If you are a person with a disability, learn about your rights so you get the healthcare you need.
