MEMORANDUM TO: |
Department/Agency ADA Administrative
Coordinators and ADA
Facilities Coordinators |
FROM: |
David
M. Millstein, ADA Administrator
Office of Disabilities
Management |
SUBJECT: |
AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT
COMPLIANCE FUNDING
REQUEST AND
PROCEDURES |
 As part of the State's ongoing effort to fulfill its requirements
and responsibilities of the Americans With Disabilities Act ( ADA) Title
II, the attached Procedures and Funding request guidelines are to be used
when your agency cannot make its programs, services or activities
accessible other than by structural modification.
 As you are aware, the goal of the Self-Evaluation was to identify
the conditions that should exist so that people with all types of
disabilities can participate fully in the programs, services and
activities of your department/agency. In this context, it is important to
recognize that discrimination can result both from explicit policies
and/or from the lack of formal policies on issues of discrimination.
 To ensure ongoing accessibility compliance efforts, we are asking
you to follow these procedures.
 If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact my
office at (609) 292-7299 (v) or (609) 292-6525 (TDD).
