Since the inception of the ADA, nearly 300,000 administrative charges have been filed under Title I. ADA Insights provides in-depth empirical research and analysis about how the ADA is enforced. Some of the questions that our research provides answers to are:
- What are the outcomes of these administrative charges?
- What are the outcomes of lawsuits?
- What factors influence the outcomes of both administrative and legal cases?
- What have been the subjective experiences of individuals who have completed the entire Title I dispute resolution process?
- Do the experiences of individuals with psychiatric disabilities differ from the experiences of those with other types of disabilities and, if so, how?
