Overview
America’s Recovery: Powered by Inclusion
Psychiatric disabilities and mental health issues may affect a person’s awareness, memory, and ability to learn, process information, interact with others, communicate, and make decisions. They can often be “hidden disabilities” that do not receive the public awareness of visible disabilities.
What are the workplace rights of people with psychiatric disabilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)? What types of accommodations and auxiliary aids are commonly needed by individuals with these disabilities?
Learn more about how employers can effectively engage candidates and employees with these functional limitations and benefit from quality talent.
