HHS Holding Webinar on Final Rule Implementing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973

May 23, 2024

Per the notice below, the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is holding a free Webinar on its final rule implementing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 protecting disabled persons in programs receiving federal monies.

Webinar: Overview of HHS’ Final Rule Implementing
Section 504 of the Rehab Act

Tuesday, May 28, 2024|2:00 PM ET

On May 1, 2024, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) made disability rights history with the release of a long-awaited final rule implementing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This comprehensive update — the first since the initial regulation was put into place more than 40 years ago — creates one of the most powerful tools we have ever had to combat discrimination based on disability in health care and human services. In this Webinar, leaders from the HHS Office for Civil Rights (OCR) will provide an overview of the rule’s critical provisions for the disability and aging networks. ASL and CART will be provided. A recording will be available on ACL.gov/504rule shortly after the Webinar. ACL was proud to work with our partners in the OCR and the disability community to achieve this top priority, and we are looking forward to working with OCR, the disability and aging networks, and the broader community to ensure that people with disabilities know about the rule’s powerful provisions to uphold their civil rights and guarantee they have equal access to health care and human services.
