Under Title II (Subtitle A) of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), public entities must not discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities in their facilities, programs, services, or activities. In accordance with this, the DC Department of Corrections is committed to making every effort to provide reasonable accommodations for inmates in its custody.
The agency is dedicated to ensuring reasonable accommodations for inmates and visitors with disabilities, except in cases where it would impose an undue hardship. These accommodations may include sign language interpretation, language line access, and other necessary services. If you require a reasonable accommodation, please contact Risk Manager Carl R. Young at (202) 341-4905 or via email at [email protected]. Kindly allow at least five business days for consideration of your requested accommodation.
