ADA Disability and Business Technical Assistance Centers
The ADA National Network provides information, guidance and training on how to implement the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in order to support the mission of the ADA to “assure equality of opportunity, full participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency for individuals with disabilities.”
Regional ADA and IT Centers
The National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) established 10 regional centers to provide information, training and technical assistance to employers and people with disabilities. Special emphasis is on meeting the needs of small businesses.
DBTACs work closely with both the business and the disability communities to provide:
- Technical Assistance
- ADA Education and Training
- Material Dissemination
- Information and Referral
- Public Awareness
- Local Capacity Building
The easiest way to reach any of the DBTACs is by calling: 800-949-4232 (V/TTY). This number automatically connects you to the region from where your call originates.
