What Are "Reasonable Accommodations?"

Reasonable accommodations are often referred to as auxiliary aids or services that provide greater accessibility to the individual with a disability. These aids or services must be provided unless the provider can demonstrate that the accommodation would cause undue hardship or constitute a substantial change to the nature of the program. In most cases, reasonable accommodations are just that - reasonable. The costs are generally limited and the types of accommodations required can be made without changing the nature of your program. Although many people fear that making accommodations will cost thousands and thousands of dollars, the research clearly demonstrates that most accommodations are cost effective - showing good returns on minimal investments.
