Section 504 states in pertinent part:No otherwise qualified individual with a disability in the United States…shall, solely by reason of his or her disability, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance….The ADA Also Prohibits Disability-Based DiscriminationThe Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) also prohibits discrimination based on disability, but it is broader and applies to all public entities (including schools), whether or not they receive federal funds. The ADA also prohibits disability-based discrimination in employment by employers (public or private) with 15 or more employees, as well as in “places of public accommodation” such as stores, hotels, restaurants, day care centers, and private non-religious schools. State laws may also prohibit disability-based discrimination in public schools. The Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act of 2008 (ADAAA) amended both the ADA and Section 504 in a manner that expands coverage of individuals but did not substantively change the obligation owed to individuals who qualify for protection.from the Section 504 Handbook, Copyright © 2014 Drummond Woodsum & MacMahon.
