“Any Questions about ADA focusing on Deaf/Hard of Hearing?”
If you don’t think that attending ADA training would be beneficial,
answer the questions below:
1) Have you ever been confused about what ADA really says?
2) Does a private doctor’s office have to employ at least 15
employees before having to comply with ADA?
3) Does a Social Security office have to follow ADA?
4) Under the ADA, are employers required to pay for interpreters for
their Deaf/hard of hearing employees?
5) Does ADA apply to a public college/university only, not a private
one?
If you answer “Yes” to at least one of the above questions, come
to my training to find out. The training would empower you to learn
how to self-advocate as a Deaf or Hard of Hearing individual. Here are
the training dates and locations:
