504 Reasonable Accomodations
RRHA provides reasonable accommodations to applicants, residents, and participants with disabilities.
Federal law, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act (1973), is there to protect your rights and to help you identify a reasonable, effective, and appropriate accommodation. RRHA will fully bear the cost of all reasonable accommodations unless doing so would create an undue financial and administrative burden.
