New opportunities for Americans with disabilities
Abstract:
Historically, individuals with disabilities have been isolated and segregated. Physical and psychological barriers left them significantly disadvantaged, politically powerless, and without legal recourse in matters of discrimination. The Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 is opening doors and promising new opportunities for individuals with disabilities to contribute and participate fully in our society. The author offers an overview of the purpose and major provisions of the act, which compares in scope to the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
