Obesity Discrimination and the Americans with Disabilities Act (open access)

Obesity Discrimination and the Americans with Disabilities Act

This report outlines the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which provides broad nondiscrimination protection for individuals with disabilities. However, to be covered under the statute, an individual must first meet the definition of an individual with a disability. Questions have been raised as to whether and to what extent obesity is a disability under the ADA and whether the ADA protects obese individuals from discrimination. This report provides background regarding how obesity is covered under the ADA and its supporting regulations. It also discusses some of the ways in which courts have applied the ADA to obesity discrimination claims.

Older Americans Act: More Should Be Done to Measure the Extent of Unmet Need for Services (open access)

Older Americans Act: More Should Be Done to Measure the Extent of Unmet Need for Services

A letter report issued by the Government Accountability Office with an abstract that begins "The Older Americans Act (OAA) was enacted to help older adults remain in their homes and communities. In fiscal year 2008, about 5 percent of the nation's adults 60 and over received key aging services through Title III of the OAA, including meals and home-based care. In fiscal year 2010, states received $1.4 billion to fund Title III programs. Studies project large increases in the number of adults who will be eligible for services in the future and likely government budget constraints. In advance of program reauthorization scheduled for 2011, GAO was asked to determine: (1) what is known about the need for home- and community-based services like those funded by OAA and the potential unmet need for these services; (2) how have agencies used their funds, including Recovery Act funds, to meet program objectives, and (3) how government and local agencies measured need and unmet need. To do this, GAO analyzed national self-reported data; surveyed a random sample of 125 local agencies; reviewed agency documents; and spoke with officials from the Administration on Aging (AoA) and state and local agencies."

Lecture given Tuesday, February 19, 2002, 8:30 AM at Abilene Christian University: "How do we make sense of our world in the wake of the terrorist attacks on our nation? Five months after our national tragedy we are still asking the hard questions of faith in the face of devestation and loss. While easy answers evade us, it is important for Christians to think about the shape of their world in the light of suffering. Join these three teachers as we consider again our place in light of the events of September 11, 2001."
