How should I handle discrimination on the basis of disability? What do I do if I have been treated unfairly because of a disability?

Answer

Information about your rights as a person with disabilities can be found on the Office for Civil Rights Web site: http://www.hhs.gov/ocr/discrimdisab.html.

You may also check your local client assistance program, and other organizations which serve persons with disabilities:

• State Protection and Advocacy Agencies
• State Councils on Developmental Disabilities
• Council of State Administrators of Vocational Rehabilitation
