Thanks to the generous support of our donors, Disability Rights Advocates is pleased to make available on our website and in our offices the work of artists from the National Institute of Art & Disabilities (NIAD). NIAD provides an art program that promotes creativity, independence, dignity, and community integration for people with developmental and other disabilities.
This handbook explains the legal rights of people with disabilities to fair treatment in employment, both in the hiring process and on the job. Written as part of DRA's Access to Employment Project, it provides an overview of the law and your legal rights, and also includes strategies and resources to help you assert your rights more effectively. The handbook was written specifically for individuals who are blind, visually impaired, deaf or hard of hearing, although others may also find it helpful.
This publication is available as a PDF file, and also as a plain text file.
