The Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) is a landmark law enacted in 1990 that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities. It aims to ensure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else in various areas, including employment, public services, and transportation.
The ADA requires businesses and government entities to provide reasonable accommodations and accessibility for individuals with disabilities. This includes making physical spaces accessible, such as ramps and elevators, as well as ensuring effective communication and access to services. The law plays a crucial role in promoting inclusion and equality for all Americans.
