The Disability Law Resource Project (DLRP) Web cast 7/26/06

[Guest guest]

<FYI>

Please join The Disability Law Resource Project (DLRP)

at ILRU for a Web cast on Filing Complaints under the

Americans with Disabilities Act.

McCullough with ILRU will present the Web cast,

" Filing Disability Rights Complaints: Why Should You,

How Do You, and What Not to Do " on Wednesday,

July 26, 2006 at 3:00pm Eastern; 2:00pm Central;

1:00pm Mountain; 12:00pm Pacific; 11:00am Alaska; 9:00am Hawaii.

Sometime the desire to file a complaint is overwhelmed by

fear of complexity or cost. Sometimes people hesitate to

file a complaint because they think doing such is useless,

and that nothing will ever happen to help them resolve the

discrimination. In this web cast the speaker will discuss

the complaint process, review the agencies responsible for

receiving various types of disability rights, and technical

non-compliance complaints, and dispel the myth of futility.

This session will also focus on the best way to model and

write a those complaints in order to clearly describe the

situation, and hopefully, increase the chances of a positive

resolution.
