Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get assistance for my special needs? (Example: physical accommodation, spoken language interpreter)

To ensure compliance with the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA), the courts have designated ADA coordinators for their facilities and services. If you have questions or need assistance, contact the appropriate ADA Coordinator. [See ADA Coordinators ]
