Protection and Advocacy

Abuse and Neglect
Public Accommodations
  • Public Accommodations Self-Advocacy Toolkit - Equal Rights Center. When faced with   discrimination, it is often difficult to figure out what steps you must take to resolve the issue. This toolkit is specifically designed to help people with disabilities identify and address problems they encounter when attempting to access any public place.
Reasonable Accommodations and Modifications
  • Reasonable Accommodations and Modifications Accessibility Self-Advocacy Toolkit -Equal Rights Center. People with disabilities have the right to live in the community of their choice. Accessibility laws ensure that, either through structural changes to the building (generally, a “reasonable modification”) or changes in rules and policies (generally, a “reasonable accommodation”), people with disabilities have equal access and enjoyment of their home. This toolkit is specifically designed to help people with disabilities identify and address problems they encounter in housing.
