ADA Accessibility Information for Persons with Disabilities

It is the goal of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department to provide accessibility to its facilities, programs and services for all persons with disabilities.  In accordance with the Title II requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department will not discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities on the basis of disability in employment or in the admission and access to its facilities, programs, services, or activities.  The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has designated an ADA Coordinator to ensure compliance with the nondiscrimination requirements of the ADA.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department will provide appropriate auxiliary aids and services, including qualified sign language interpreters and assistive listening devices, whenever necessary to ensure effective communication with the members of the public who have hearing, sight, or speech impairments, unless to do so would result in a fundamental alteration of its programs or an undue administrative or financial burden. Furthermore,

the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department will make reasonable modifications to its

policies and procedures to ensure that persons with disabilities have equal access to its facilities, programs, services and activities.

Any person requesting reasonable accommodation, an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication or modification of policies to participate in Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department program, service, or activity, should contact the sponsoring office or by submitting

a completed “Request for Reasonable Accommodation” form, as far in advance as possible

but no later than 48 hours before the scheduled event.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department encourages all persons with disabilities to contact the Department with questions, comments, and concerns pertaining to accessibility issues. Complaints that a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department facility, program, service

or activity is not accessible to persons with disabilities should be directed to the
Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, ADA Coordinator. 

For additional information, you may contact the ADA Coordinator at (323) 526-5671,
