ADA Title II and Title III Regulations Fact Sheet Series<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The U.S. Department of Justice recently revised the ADA Title II requirements for State and Local Governments and Title III requirements for Places of Public Accommodation. Although a great number of the regulations took effect March 15, 2011, additional requirements went into effect March 15, 2012. The National Network of ADA Centers has created a series of fact sheets to ensure businesses, government entities and individuals understand these changes. PDF versions of each fact sheet are listed below by topic area. For your convenience, the first fact sheet in the series provides a brief overview of the changes for each of the other topic areas.
