REASONABLE ACCOMODATIONS. AmeriCorps prohibits any form of discrimination against persons with disabilities in recruitment, as well as in service. As a program that receives federal funds, the City of Davenport’s AmeriCorps/Youth Corps program complies with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. No qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the program, services, or activities of the program, or be subjected to discrimination by the program or host site. Neither the program nor the host site shall exclude or otherwise deny equal services, programs or activities to a qualified individual because of the known disability of another individual with whom the qualified individual is known to have a relationship or association. The program and host site shall make reasonable accommodations in policies, practices, or procedures when the accommodations are necessary to avoid discrimination on the basis of disability, unless the program and host site can demonstrate that making modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program, or activity, and/or impose an “undue hardship”. A reasonable accommodation may include: making facilities, readily accessible to and usable by individuals with disabilities; job restructuring; part-time or modified schedules; acquisition or modification of equipment or devices, training materials, or policies; etc. Members may request reasonable accommodations by completing the Reasonable Accommodation Request Form and submitting it to the program director.
