Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA Policy)

ADA Policy

The current law of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA), states that “a disability can be a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities of an individual. The ADA law prohibits discrimination and ensures that individuals with disabilities have the same opportunities as everyone else to participate in the mainstream of American life – to enjoy employment opportunities, to purchase goods and services, and to participate in State and local government programs and services.” As an institution of higher education, Heritage University commits to make reasonable accommodations for students with disabilities.

If you believe you have a disability which may warrant an accommodation, the first step is to contact the Office of Disability Services to schedule an appointment at: 509-865-8544 or e-mail Officeofdisabilityservices@heritage.edu
