The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 were established in order to provide a clear comprehensive national mandate for the elimination of discrimination against individuals with disabilities. West Virginia University placed the administrative responsibility for ADA/Rehabilitation Act compliance in the President's Office for Social Justice. Examples of issues within the scope of this responsibility include program accessibility for all institutional constituents, removing existing architectural and physical barriers, ensuring that capital projects are in compliance, arranging for accessible transportation, providing ongoing education and training, and ensuring compliance in employment practices. Both ADA requirement and guiding principles for ADA/Rehabilitation Act compliance are available from this office. Consultation on disability related issues is available and encouraged.
