Understanding the DOJ Clarification
Recent discussions about a DOJ legal opinion have created questions and concerns throughout the disability community. The DOJ has clarified that its opinion does not change existing law.
The ADA, Section 504, and the Olmstead decision remain in effect, and people with disabilities continue to have the right to live, work, and participate in their communities.
While people with disabilities have not lost their legal rights, there is concern that reduced federal enforcement could make it harder to ensure access to home- and community-based services.

Knowledge is power. Learn the facts and stay engaged.
