ADA Title II Action Guide for State and Local Governments

Project Civic Access

The Department of Justice’s Project Civic Access is a wide-ranging effort to ensure that counties, cities, towns, and villages comply with the ADA. The Department has conducted comprehensive Title II reviews in 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia. Compliance review sites are chosen based upon the Department’s desire to visit every state, the population of the site, and, in some cases, its proximity to a university or tourist attraction. Some reviews were initiated in response to complaints and others were not. The settlement agreements are posted on the Department’s website at www.ada.gov. They provide a good overview of the Department of Justice’s expectations for public entities’ compliance with Title II.
