Good afternoon everyone, and a happy new year to you all,

In light of some of the recent dialogue that has taken place, I am 
forwarding this opportunity that some of you may wish to take advantage of. 
This is an upcoming ADA training event hosted by the DBTAC, Disability, 
Business and Technical Assistance Center serving the Great Lakes Region from 
which I live.  There is a nominal fee I believe, but you can find out more

January 19th, 2010 » Service Animals: Unraveling the differences and best 
practices
The rights of people with disabilities who use service animals vary, 
depending on which law applies. The Americans with Disabilities Act, the Air 
Carrier Access Act, and the Fair Housing Act each have different standards 
for service animals and their owners. Complicating the topic even further is 
the issue of the definition of service animals, especially in relation to 
emotional support or therapy animals. This session will provide information 
about the definition of service animals and the rights of service animal 
owners under the ADA, the ACAA, and the FHA. We will also discuss the 
differences in how the various laws treat service animals versus emotional 
support or therapy animals, as well as model service animal policies for 
educational institutions and healthcare facilities.

Speaker:
Jacquie Brennan, Attorney, DBTAC-Southwest ADA Center
Guest Moderator:
Wendy Wilkinson, Project Director, DBTAC-Southwest ADA Center
