[Nfbc-info] trying to find the CA aw reference(s) that apply to the legally blind

[Michael Groat]

All,

In simple terms, if a discrimination law suit is going to be filed against a
company for failure to provide reasonable accommodations, such as a screen
reader like JAWS and for the internal data to be readable by the screen
reader, what law(s) would apply?

I know that the ADA makes mention of a qualified reader.  I have been told
that California has stiffer requirements than the ADA.  My goal is to be
able to review the California applicable law(s) and then compare those laws
against the ADA myself.  

I hope that this clarifies what I am after.
Michael

Hi Mike,
Are you looking for sections concerning housing, employment or program 
accessibility?
