The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is intended to bring an end to discrimination against individuals with disabilities in three distinct areas: employment, public services, and public accommodations. This law was enacted in 1990 and is enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Fitchburg State College stated it simply, "The ADA was established to strip away the barriers that have restricted people with disabilities from achieving their fullest potential in employment and in the community."
