Often its the hidden disabilities that get overlooked.
- cbhl 8y agoSometimes the accommodations are just as hidden as the disability. Things like giving people flexibility about when they come and go at work, or putting someone's desk in a different location (near windows, or away from windows). I admit that some folks specialize in physical manifestations of ADA (wheelchair ramps, elevators, bathrooms). In some sense, these are easier problems to solve -- you just need to pay a contractor to build a thing on the building. Accommodating hidden disabilities often requires getting people on a team to change their behavior or response to a behavior; a much harder problem.
