What Child Care Providers Need to Know: Including All Children and the Americans Disability Act
05/09/2016New ADA Requirements: Including All Children and the Americans with Disabilities ACT (ADA)All family child care providers, including assistant teachers in large family homes, and all child care center directors, teachers and assistant teachers are required to take this class. Please visit our website to register for a class today! Most child care programs are required to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, Title III).1 Being in compliance largely depends on making reasonable accommodations to meet the specific needs of parents and children with disabilities who seek your services. However, there is a lot that can be done ahead of time to move your program toward full compliance with the law. This checklist and guide have been developed with that in mind—what can you do now, before any specific parent or child with a disability presents him- or herself at your door, to better comply with the law? This resource focuses on four major areas in which accommodations may need to be made—admissions; general policies, practices, and procedures; communication methods; and physical accessibility (inside and outside the facility). For each area, the guide identifies areas for review and suggests ways to improve compliance. Although the focus is on ADA compliance, there is much more that can be done to welcome persons with disabilities. The resources section at the end of this document suggests further organizations and materials that can help you actively promote inclusion in your program.
