The Office for Civil Rights is aggressively scrutinizing districts’ Section 504 policies to make sure they incorporate changes in eligibility determinations brought about by the ADAAA. This 30-minute video is the ideal way to make sure your policies -- and your staff’s eligibility decisions -- pass legal muster.

Nationally recognized Section 504 expert and attorney David Richards explains in plain language the 5 major changes to Section 504 resulting from the ADAAA. Going beyond clarifying the law, he also spells out the practical ramifications for Section 504 eligibility procedures and their implementation -- so you can incorporate his guidance on:

• How the ADAAA’s new major life activities impact Section 504 eligibility
• When it might be appropriate to refer a child with an episodic impairment for a Section 504 evaluation
• Possible approaches to eligibility decisions for students with impairments in remission
• How the rule prohibiting the consideration of mitigating measures -- and its exceptions -- affect eligibility determinations
• How to move forward in areas that are still unclear
• And more!
