Accommodating What You Can’t See: Reasonable Accommodations for “Invisible Disabilities”

Accommodating What You Can’t See: Reasonable Accommodations for “Invisible Disabilities”

May 13, 2015 – 2pm ET

Providing an effective and safe reasonable accommodation for the “unseen” disability is often a daunting process. Learning disabilities, chronic pain, dyslexia, moderate depression, and allergies affect the population at large and our colleagues. The difficult communications that often accompany the discussion of these potentially stigmatizing disabilities, joined with the assumption of a lack of availability of an effective and affordable accommodation, creates unneeded difficulty when managing these requests.

Join Roy Matheson and Amber Cheek, JD as they explore recent real world examples of successful accommodation of unseen disabilities.
