ABOUT THE EVENT

A Reasonable Accommodation is a change, exception, or adjustment to a rule, policy, practice or service that may be necessary for a person with disabilities to have equal opportunity to use and enjoy a dwelling including, public and common use spaces, or fulfill their program obligations. Applicants or residents may make Reasonable Accommodation requests at any time. They can be made verbally or written and if the disability is obvious, documentation is not needed. It is necessary for both parties to be clear on the request and it should correspond with the disability. Unreasonable requests don’t correspond with the disability or can impact the operating expenses of the community. Let’s explore what is reasonable and a clear defining procedure to approval.

Why You Should Attend:

Reasonable Accommodations request can be overlooked or unreasonable at times. Applicants and Residents have received misinformation over the years, that it is the obligation of owners to approve every request made. Learn how to determine if a Reasonable Accommodation is reasonable and when the accommodation is really a modification and who should be financially responsible. Ensure the file is well documented and determine if the current procedure does this. Understand all RA requests are not for animals, but can be anything that will make the dwelling equal.
