Abstract:

Any discrimination against disabled persons by public and private employers is prohibited by the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Joyce examines each requirement of the act in detail. The challenge facing North Carolina schools, elementary through university, in the hiring of employees, is to ensure that the disabled are on an equal footing when applying for jobs and in performing on the job.
