Developmental Disabilities Last A Lifetime- DSHS their peers, and don't need further special services after age three. and happinesswere not their disabilities, but the prejudice and discrimination they faced http://www.wa.gov/dshs/cwofdd/
Extractions: Most people who have developmental disabilities can run, laugh, fly a kite, and enjoy a picnic. As adults, many hold jobs, live in their own houses or apartments, go to movies, and visit with their neighbors. But even people with mild developmental disabilities are vulnerable, because they learn more slowly, are easier to deceive, and less likely to grasp many of the complexities of modern life. They might not be able to balance a checkbook, drive a car, compare prices at the grocery store, follow a recipe, find a job on their own, or program a VCR.

Extractions: Equal Employment Opportunity Commission Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), U.S. agency created in 1964 to end discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in employment and to promote programs to make equal employment opportunity a reality. It has since become responsible for ending discrimination based on age or disability. The commission receives charges of discrimination, investigates, and if they appear true, attempts to remedy them through conciliation. If conciliation is not secured, the commission may bring suit in federal court. During the Reagan and Bush administrations it was criticized for shifting from blanket to individual complaints, for permitting no retroactive application of the Civil Rights Law of 1991, and for letting thousands of age discrimination cases lapse. In 1996 it began the mediation-based alternative dispute resolution program to help it resolve charges faster. The commision handles 75,000 to 80,000 charges annually.

Extractions: The right to a public education in California is a fundamental right fully guaranteed and protected by the California Constitution. Recognizing the central role that education plays in our society, the California Legislature has enacted numerous laws designed to promote equality in educational opportunities and to safeguard students against discriminatory practices in public schools providing educational services. For example, public school teachers are prohibited from giving instruction, and school districts are prohibited from sponsoring any activity which adversely reflects upon persons because of their race, sex, color, creed, handicap, national origin, or ancestry. Instructional material used in public schools must not include matter which is discriminatory on the basis of race, sex, color, creed, handicap, national origin or ancestry. Scholarships, loans and grants must be awarded in a nondiscriminatory manner. Discrimination based upon sex is also prohibited in athletic programs provided by public schools or supported by public funds.
