Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 45, November 8, 2024

Section 1800.10 - Purpose

a) The Americans With Disabilities Act grievance procedure is established pursuant to the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 ( 42 USC 12101 et seq.) (ADA) and specifically 28 CFR 35.107 requiring that a procedure be established to resolve grievances asserted by qualified individuals with disabilities. Any individual desiring to review the ADA or its regulations to understand the rights, privileges and remedies afforded by it may contact the Designated Coordinator.

b) In general, the ADA requires that each program, service and activity offered by the State Board of Elections (Office), when viewed in its entirety, be readily accessible to and usable by qualified individuals with disabilities.

c) It is the intent of the Office to foster open communication with all individuals requesting ready access to programs, services and activities. The Office encourages directors of programs, services and activities to respond to requests for modifications before they become grievances.
