§ 19803 Individualized Disability Services

Key Takeaways

  • •Help for people with disabilities must fit their specific needs.
  • •No matter what kind of disability a person has, they should get the help they need.
  • •The help should be made just for them, not one-size-fits-all.

Example

A person who uses a wheelchair needs to get into a building.

The building must have a ramp or elevator so they can get in, not just stairs. This is because the help (like ramps) must fit their specific need (using a wheelchair).
