Disability Accommodations
Disability accommodations are adjustments or modifications made to help individuals with disabilities participate fully in various settings, such as workplaces, schools, or public spaces. These accommodations can include changes in physical environments, like installing ramps or providing accessible restrooms, as well as adjustments in policies or practices, such as allowing extra time for tests.
The goal of disability accommodations is to ensure equal access and opportunities for individuals with disabilities, promoting inclusivity and reducing barriers. Examples of accommodations may involve providing assistive technology, offering flexible work hours, or allowing service animals, all aimed at supporting the needs of individuals with disabilities.
