Web cast on Filing ADA Complaints

Please join The Disability Law Resource Project (DLRP)
at ILRU for a Web cast on Filing Complaints under the
Americans with Disabilities Act.

Aaron McCullough with ILRU will present the Web cast,
"Filing Disability Rights Complaints: Why Should You,
How Do You, and What Not to Do" on Wednesday,
July 26, 2006 at 3:00pm Eastern; 2:00pm Central;
1:00pm Mountain; 12:00pm Pacific; 11:00am Alaska; 9:00am Hawaii.

Sometime the desire to file a complaint is overwhelmed by
fear of complexity or cost. Sometimes people hesitate to
file a complaint because they think doing such is useless,
and that nothing will ever happen to help them resolve the
discrimination. In this web cast the speaker will discuss
the complaint process, review the agencies responsible for
receiving various types of disability rights, and technical
non-compliance complaints, and dispel the myth of futility.
This session will also focus on the best way to model and
write a those complaints in order to clearly describe the
situation, and hopefully, increase the chances of a positive
resolution.

The Web cast is being presented by J. Aaron McCullough,
a legal specialist for the Disability Law Resource Project
(DLRP) at ILRU. He produces materials on disability law
issues, provides training on all aspects of the ADA,
and fields technical assistance requests.

Aaron earned his law degree from the University of
Houston Law Center in December of 2000, and became a
member of the State Bar of Texas in the spring of 2001.
Aaron entered law school after working as a social worker
for Central Plains MHMR in Plainview, Texas where he
worked as an advocate for people with developmental
disabilities. Previously, he worked at Burrell Mental
Healthcare Center, and Lakes Country Rehabilitation
Center, both in Springfield, Missouri. Aaron's recent research
interests include: impact of "No Child Left Behind" policy
on the treatment of students with disabilities, accessibility
of the polling place and process, historical preservation and
the ADA, and achieving accessibility through state and
local legal means.
