Questions about PSWs riding for free

[Guest guest]

Lots of questions lately about PSWs being allowed access for free to public

facilities, programs or services! Two people have raised questions about the

Metra trains with me, are we all aboard for summer train rides on Metra this

summer?

I’ve forwarded the question to Berg at the Great Lakes ADA Center,

hopefully he will have some guidance for the group. Certainly personal

attendants are admitted at no extra cost to the person with a disabiilty if the

business, program, facility or service is covered under the ADA, and if not

having the personal attendant would prevent access for the person with the

disability, and if the accomodation is deemed reasonable. My guess is there’s

some solution here. Will post ’s answer when it’s received.
