The Rehabilitation Act authorizes funding for disability-related activities, including state vocational rehabilitation programs, independent living programs, supported employment, client assistance, training and research. The Act also prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability. The anti-discrimination provisions are in Sections 501, 503, 504 and 508 of the Act.
Section 501 requires affirmative action and nondiscrimination in employment by each department, agency, and instrumentality (including the United States Postal Service) in the executive branch. The standards for determining employment discrimination on the basis of disability are the same as those used in Title I of the ADA.
