Welcome
to HUD's Section 504 One-Stop Web Site!
Section 504 provides that no qualified individual with a
disability should, only 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.
This
Web site provides a wide variety of resources with two goals in
mind:
1) to provide guidance to persons with disabilities about their
rights under Section 504 and related statutes, the exercise
of those rights, and what information and resources are available
from HUD; and
2)
to provide recipients of HUD financial assistance with information
regarding their obligations under Section 504, an overview of
relevant regulatory provisions, and information about steps
they may take to ensure that they are in compliance.
This
one-stop Web site includes, for example:
We
are fully committed to ensuring that its programs and activities
are accessible to everyone, and that our Section 504 Web site will
promote information-sharing and dialogue among all those who share
this commitment.
We
will be adding to the Web site as needed, and we invite you to let
us know about ways we can improve it. Please contact Cheryl
D. Kent at 202.708.2333 with your comments and suggestions.
Thank
you for your interest and support.
