Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act covers a lot of terrain. Many public agencies lack a specific understanding of their communication responsibilities to the deaf and hard of hearing under Title II.
LanguageLine(R) is honored to present a free Webinar: “ADA Title II: Understanding the Communication Responsibilities of State and Local Agencies.” During this webinar, leading ADA and disabilities rights expert Julia Sain outlines requirements for state and local government agencies when communicating with the deaf and hard of hearing communities they serve. She also addresses attendee questions.
This webinar is essential listening for state and local government officials who are responsible for language access and compliance. Non-profit organizations that work with local government agencies to provide services will also find it of great importance.
