The Civil Rights Division (Division) of the Department of Justice, created by the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1957, works to uphold the civil and constitutional rights of all Americans, particularly some of the most vulnerable members of our society. The Division enforces federal statutes prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), disability, religion, familial status, national origin, and citizenship status.
The Disability Rights Section works to achieve equal opportunity for people with disabilities in the United States by implementing the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The ADA prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability in places of public accommodation, including hotels, restaurants, retail stores, theaters, health care facilities, convention centers, parks, and places of recreation, in all activities of over 80,000 state and local governments, and in employment practices of state and local government employers with 15 or more employees. The ADA also establishes architectural accessibility requirements for buildings, facilities, and sites covered under Titles II and III, which generally include nonresidential buildings and facilities. DRS has a central role in enforcement, regulation, and technical assistance under the ADA, as well as Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act.
