This online reading-based asynchronous distance learning course :

focuses on preventing discrimination against inmates with mobility and other disabilities through the design and use of accessible correctional and justice facilities. Many inmates in state and local correctional facilities have mobility disabilities and require accessible housing. Yet, some facilities lack sufficient accessible cells. Federal laws protect people with disabilities from discrimination by state and local governments, including correctional institutions. All such entities are covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), and those receiving federal funds are also covered by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.

 

Learning Objectives:

 

  1. Determine what the ADA requires of correctional institutions to protect the rights of disabled inmates.

  2. Discuss basic considerations for accessible cells.

  3. Describe architectural and procedural barriers to equal delivery of inmate services.

  4. Examine common questions regarding law enforcement and disability, including communication strategies with the hard of hearing.
