Dear Mr. XX
The ADA was not yet in effect at the time of the November 2,
1991, meeting. Both title II and title III of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) took effect on January 26, 1992. However,
if the New York State Head Injury Association received Federal
financial assistance, it would be required to conform to section
504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The obligations under
section 504 are similar to those under the ADA.
