ADA Legal Webinar Series - Next Session is February 3rd, 2010

The Great Lakes ADA Center is hosting a series of free ADA legal webinars. Alan Goldstein and I from Equip for Equality are in charge of providing the content for these webinars.  In some of the webinars, we are the featured speakers, and in others, we are co-presenters with ADA experts, including Brian East from Advocacy Inc. and John Hendrickson from the Chicago EEOC office.

The next legal webinar will take place on Tuesday February 3rd at 1:00 CST. The topic is "The Impact of the Supreme Court*s ADA Decisions." The session will provide an in-depth review of lower court interpretations of the major Supreme Court ADA decisions that were not covered by the ADA Amendments Act (Sutton and Toyota) and provide guidance on interpreting issues raised in those cases.  Participants will also receive a legal brief that provides a more detailed review of the various lower court interpretations of the Supreme Court's ADA cases.
