FAQ
Florida State Law: If you work for an employer that employs 15 or more employees and are treated less favorably because you are any age (too young or too old), you are protected under Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA).
Discrimination is the unequal treatment of different categories of people when this treatment cannot be justified on the basis of objective and reasonable criteria. Children are more vulnerable to discrimination than adults as they are often disadvantaged in terms of social power.
Below are some examples of direct discrimination: A parent rings a school asking about admission for a child with cerebral palsy. The secretary says, “We don't take disabled children.” A deaf young person is not allowed to take part in a workshop run by a visiting orchestra, as “Deaf children won't benefit from music.”
The Broward County Human Rights Ordinanceprotects individuals from unlawful discrimination in employment (employer with 5 - 14 employees), housing and public accommodations.
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act prohibits discrimination based on a disability in programs or activities receiving federal financial assistance including public preschool, elementary, secondary and postsecondary schools.
The general difference between the IEP and Section 504 is that the objective to Section 504 is to remove barriers that could stop a student from success, whereas, the IEP is to set up special accommodations for students in need. The eligibility requirements for an IEP are much more stringent than those of Section 504.
The 504 Plan is a plan developed to ensure that a child who has a disability identified under the law and is attending an elementary or secondary educational institution receives accommodations that will ensure their academic success and access to the learning environment.
