Oklahoma Southwest Americans with Disabilities Act

ADA

This is a key resource for persons with disabilities residing in Oklahoma. The Southwest ADA Center works to protect and advance the rights, independence and standards of living for the disabled population in its appointed region.

The Southwest Americans with Disabilities Act (SWADA) is not a specific law or organization. However, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in various areas of public life. While there isn't a Southwest ADA specifically, the ADA applies to all states, including Oklahoma, which is part of the southwest region of the United States. In Oklahoma, the ADA ensures that people with disabilities have equal access to employment, public accommodations, transportation, and government services. It also requires reasonable accommodations to be made for individuals with disabilities, promoting inclusivity and accessibility throughout the state.
