The most well-known is the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which was signed into law by President George H.W. Bush on July 26, 1990. It requires that people with disabilities be given equal access at all levels of society, including jobs, government services, public accommodations, and public transportation.</p><h2 style=\"color: #42864f;\"><strong>Who is protected by the ADA?</strong></h2><ul><li>A person with a disability or who has had a disability—someone with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. This might include the ability to see, hear, speak, breathe, or walk.</li><li>A person who is perceived to have a disability; e.g., an individual who is a cancer survivor.</li></ul><p>If you are living with vision loss, it\'s important to understand the basic facts about ADA and how it protects you.</p>		\n									Title I\n									Title II\n									Title III\n									Dog Guides\n									Title IV\n									Title I\n					<p>Title I of the ADA covers employers of 15 or more people. Employers must make employment application and testing procedures accessible by providing &#8220;reasonable accommodation.&#8221; For example, all employment applications must be available to you in an accessible format.</p><p>If you are required to use a computer to complete testing, the employer must make that computer accessible to you. The employer may choose the accessibility software but it must give you an opportunity equal to other applicants who are not visually impaired.</p><p>Employers must make memos, benefit information, employment-related documents, and on-the-job training accessible. If, as an employee, you experience vision loss, your employer must make &#8220;reasonable accommodations&#8221; to allow you to perform your job.</p><p>For more information on Title I, see:</p><ul><li>Equal Employment Opportunity Commission: <a href=\"http://www.eeoc.gov/facts/accommodation.html\">&#8220;Small Employers and Reasonable Accommodation&#8221;</a>.</li><li>Department of Justice. Americans with Disabilities Act: Questions and Answers, <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/q&amp;aeng02.htm#Anchor-Employment-47857\"> Employment section</a>.</li></ul>\n									Title II\n					<p>Title II of the ADA covers state and local governments. State and local government entities must make their facilities, programs, and services accessible to individuals with a visual impairment. They also have an obligation to provide access to print information in an individual&#8217;s chosen format.</p><p>Access to public housing and public transportation is also covered by Title II of the ADA. Privately owned housing is covered by the Fair Housing Act; private transportation, e.g., hotel shuttles, over-the-road buses, and taxis, is covered by Title III of the ADA.</p><p>For more information on Title II, see:</p><ul><li>Department of Justice. Americans with Disabilities Act: Questions and Answers, <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/q&amp;aeng02.htm#State11481\">State and Local Governments section</a>.</li></ul>\n									Title III\n					<p>Title III of the ADA requires places of public accommodation to make their written material accessible, but unlike state and local governments, they do not have to provide that material in an individual&#8217;s chosen accessible format as long as they provide effective communication. For example, a restaurant does not have to provide large print or braille menus—a waiter can read the menu to the patron.</p><p>Covered entities include, but are not limited to, sales and service establishments of all kinds—supermarkets, boutiques, dry cleaners, theatres, restaurants, travel agencies, doctors&#8217; and lawyers&#8217; offices, and banks.</p><p>For example, supermarkets are required to provide you with assistance to make shopping easier; boutiques and other sales establishments are required to make prices and information on products accessible; banks are required to make information on loan and mortgage documents accessible.</p><p>In addition, ADA&#8217;s Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) require braille and raised-character signage in places such as elevator car controls, offices, hotel rooms, and restrooms.</p><p>Access to private transportation vehicles and services, e.g., hotel shuttles, over-the-road buses, and taxis, is covered by Title III of the ADA.</p><p>For more information on Title III, see:</p><ul><li>Department of Justice. Americans with Disabilities Act: Questions and Answers, <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/q&amp;aeng02.htm#Public\">Public Accommodations section</a>.</li></ul>\n									Dog Guides\n					<p>The ADA protects individuals who use service animals, including dog guides. The ADA defines a service animal as &#8220;any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability.&#8221; While service animals are specifically covered by Title III of the ADA, individuals who use a dog guide are also protected under Title I as a reasonable job accommodation and under Title II as a reasonable modification of policies and procedures.</p><p>Therefore, anyone who uses a dog guide may go anywhere a sighted person can go, including—but not limited to—schools, hospitals, the workplace, restaurants, theatres, taxi cabs, trains and buses, grocery stores, museums, and health spas.</p><p>ADA does not allow an entity to charge extra admission for a dog guide or to isolate a person using a dog guide. The owner of the dog guide is responsible for controlling its behavior and is liable if the dog guide causes any property damage or harms someone.</p><p>For more information on dog guide protections, see:</p><ul><li>Department of Justice. <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/svcanimb.htm\">Americans with Disabilities Act: ADA Business BRIEF: Service Animals</a>.</li></ul>\n									Title IV\n					<p>Title IV of the ADA, Telecommunications, covers only telecommunications for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. However, Section 255 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 has provisions that apply to individuals with vision loss.</p>\n			<h2>White Cane Laws</h2>		\n		<p>White Cane Laws are a set of state laws that were the first to provide people with vision loss access to public facilities and transportation. The first White Cane Law dates back to 1966 and now each state has its own version on the books. While the language varies from state to state, all White Cane Laws protect pedestrians with white canes is similar ways.</p><p>The laws oblige operators of vehicles to stop when approaching the pedestrian whose cane is extended or who is using a dog guide. The driver is required to take needed precautions to prevent accident or injury to the pedestrian, even if the pedestrian should cross at the wrong time or place. The laws also state that the white cane (or white with red tip) is only to be used by people with vision loss.</p><p><strong>Warning:</strong> Many drivers are either unaware of the White Cane Law or choose to ignore it. Always take care to use official crosswalks and obey traffic signals.</p><p><strong>FYI:</strong> October 15 is White Cane Day! Observed annually, White Cane Day honors the independence gained by people who are blind or visually impaired.</p>		\n			<h2>Getting What You\'re Entitled To</h2>		\n												<a href=\"\">How do I get my Identification Card?</a>\n					<p>An identification card replaces a driver&#8217;s license for individuals who are unable to drive. It has the same value as a driver&#8217;s license for travel, such as when flying.</p><p>Although the process can vary from state to state, most states typically require that you call or visit your local Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or whichever government office addresses public safety concerns. For faster service, it may help to make an appointment in advance.</p><p>Be prepared to:</p><ul><li>complete an application;</li><li>provide a thumbprint;</li><li>have your picture taken;</li><li>provide your social security number, date of birth, and proof of residency and/or citizenship; and</li><li>pay any required application fee(s).</li></ul><p><strong>FYI:</strong> Just about all federal, state, and local government forms and their respective requirements are accessible online. If you have web access, it&#8217;s a good idea to consult your state&#8217;s web page before you begin the application process.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">How do I get a handicapped parking permit?</a>\n					<p>You are eligible for a special parking permit or license plate if you have one or more severe disabilities that affect mobility. You must contact the local issuing agent that provides this service to individuals in your home area. The issuing agent can vary from state to state. Visit your local city or town hall, automobile tag office, or tax collector&#8217;s office to find out where your nearest permit issuing agent is located.</p><p>Keep in mind:</p><ul><li>You must fill out an application.</li><li>It is necessary to have a medical professional verify your disability.</li><li>A parking permit may be issued for either a permanent or a temporary disability.</li><li>While permits are issued in the name of the person with the disability, <strong>you do not have to be a driver or the registered owner of a vehicle to get a parking permit</strong>.</li><li>If you have a driver&#8217;s license or identification card, bring it with you when you apply for the permit.</li></ul><h2>Other Disability Rights Laws</h2><p>Other disability rights laws cover access to telephone equipment and services; federal government information; private housing; voting; and air transportation.

For example, a restaurant does not have to provide large print or braille menus—a waiter can read the menu to the patron.</p><p>Covered entities include, but are not limited to, sales and service establishments of all kinds—supermarkets, boutiques, dry cleaners, theatres, restaurants, travel agencies, doctors&#8217; and lawyers&#8217; offices, and banks.</p><p>For example, supermarkets are required to provide you with assistance to make shopping easier; boutiques and other sales establishments are required to make prices and information on products accessible; banks are required to make information on loan and mortgage documents accessible.</p><p>In addition, ADA&#8217;s Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG) require braille and raised-character signage in places such as elevator car controls, offices, hotel rooms, and restrooms.</p><p>Access to private transportation vehicles and services, e.g., hotel shuttles, over-the-road buses, and taxis, is covered by Title III of the ADA.</p><p>For more information on Title III, see:</p><ul><li>Department of Justice. Americans with Disabilities Act: Questions and Answers, <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/q&amp;aeng02.htm#Public\">Public Accommodations section</a>.</li></ul>\n									Dog Guides\n					<p>The ADA protects individuals who use service animals, including dog guides. The ADA defines a service animal as &#8220;any guide dog, signal dog, or other animal individually trained to provide assistance to an individual with a disability.&#8221; While service animals are specifically covered by Title III of the ADA, individuals who use a dog guide are also protected under Title I as a reasonable job accommodation and under Title II as a reasonable modification of policies and procedures.</p><p>Therefore, anyone who uses a dog guide may go anywhere a sighted person can go, including—but not limited to—schools, hospitals, the workplace, restaurants, theatres, taxi cabs, trains and buses, grocery stores, museums, and health spas.</p><p>ADA does not allow an entity to charge extra admission for a dog guide or to isolate a person using a dog guide. The owner of the dog guide is responsible for controlling its behavior and is liable if the dog guide causes any property damage or harms someone.</p><p>For more information on dog guide protections, see:</p><ul><li>Department of Justice. <a href=\"http://www.ada.gov/svcanimb.htm\">Americans with Disabilities Act: ADA Business BRIEF: Service Animals</a>.</li></ul>\n									Title IV\n					<p>Title IV of the ADA, Telecommunications, covers only telecommunications for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. However, Section 255 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 has provisions that apply to individuals with vision loss.</p>\n			<h2>White Cane Laws</h2>		\n		<p>White Cane Laws are a set of state laws that were the first to provide people with vision loss access to public facilities and transportation. The first White Cane Law dates back to 1966 and now each state has its own version on the books. While the language varies from state to state, all White Cane Laws protect pedestrians with white canes is similar ways.</p><p>The laws oblige operators of vehicles to stop when approaching the pedestrian whose cane is extended or who is using a dog guide. The driver is required to take needed precautions to prevent accident or injury to the pedestrian, even if the pedestrian should cross at the wrong time or place. The laws also state that the white cane (or white with red tip) is only to be used by people with vision loss.</p><p><strong>Warning:</strong> Many drivers are either unaware of the White Cane Law or choose to ignore it. Always take care to use official crosswalks and obey traffic signals.</p><p><strong>FYI:</strong> October 15 is White Cane Day! Observed annually, White Cane Day honors the independence gained by people who are blind or visually impaired.</p>		\n			<h2>Getting What You\'re Entitled To</h2>		\n												<a href=\"\">How do I get my Identification Card?</a>\n					<p>An identification card replaces a driver&#8217;s license for individuals who are unable to drive. It has the same value as a driver&#8217;s license for travel, such as when flying.</p><p>Although the process can vary from state to state, most states typically require that you call or visit your local Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or whichever government office addresses public safety concerns. For faster service, it may help to make an appointment in advance.</p><p>Be prepared to:</p><ul><li>complete an application;</li><li>provide a thumbprint;</li><li>have your picture taken;</li><li>provide your social security number, date of birth, and proof of residency and/or citizenship; and</li><li>pay any required application fee(s).</li></ul><p><strong>FYI:</strong> Just about all federal, state, and local government forms and their respective requirements are accessible online. If you have web access, it&#8217;s a good idea to consult your state&#8217;s web page before you begin the application process.</p>\n												<a href=\"\">How do I get a handicapped parking permit?</a>\n					<p>You are eligible for a special parking permit or license plate if you have one or more severe disabilities that affect mobility. You must contact the local issuing agent that provides this service to individuals in your home area. The issuing agent can vary from state to state. Visit your local city or town hall, automobile tag office, or tax collector&#8217;s office to find out where your nearest permit issuing agent is located.</p><p>Keep in mind:</p><ul><li>You must fill out an application.</li><li>It is necessary to have a medical professional verify your disability.</li><li>A parking permit may be issued for either a permanent or a temporary disability.</li><li>While permits are issued in the name of the person with the disability, <strong>you do not have to be a driver or the registered owner of a vehicle to get a parking permit</strong>.</li><li>If you have a driver&#8217;s license or identification card, bring it with you when you apply for the permit.</li></ul><h2>Other Disability Rights Laws</h2><p>Other disability rights laws cover access to telephone equipment and services; federal government information; private housing; voting; and air transportation.

CAC is a community resource, advocate, and educator for Riverside County residents with disabilities.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"5\">Since its establishment, CAC has achieved community recognition and has substantially expanded its services. As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County.

As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County. To better serve the Coachella Valley region, CAC relocated its offices to Palm Desert in 2006. This was in response to the needs of residents in this rural area, especially the parents of children with disabilities who do not speak English. This office has had a large impact on that under-served region of the county.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/about/\" role=\"button\">\n						Learn More About Us\n					</a>\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzavx5m71806n7wsphy1lsb8up6mv6qr6hqoaw.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/blind-person-using-a-computer-pe1z1ygnfghg757xk4za3qk776nzrio8yjtkhxlnlk.jpeg\" title=\"Blind man using his computer\" alt=\"white man with shades typing on computer\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzaycv7298bnh1n4xnmrogqi67m2mrx3hap4d4.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n			<h2>Important Covid-19 Notice</h2>		\n		<p>We are back to our normal business hours which are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except for holiday’s that fall on a weekday.</p><p>For additional information regarding CAC and the COVID-19 call us at <a style=\"color: #099c7e;\" href=\"tel:(951) 274-0358.\"><strong>(951) 274-0358.</strong></a></p><p>For more information on the COVID-19 pandemic click on this link: Stay home except for essential needs.</p><p>Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

disabilities</a></h2>		\n		<p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"10\">Paying for college is a complicated process for any aspiring student. It’s a process that raises a ton of questions: What’s a Pell Grant? What’s a Perkins Loan? Do I have to pay anything back? For students with disabilities, those questions are even more complicated. The good news: a disability is not an impediment to a college education. There are plenty of resources for those who need help applying and paying for it.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"11\">This guide, designed to work with assistive technology, can help you find these resources. Aspiring students with disabilities can use our table of contents to find the best scholarships for them.

CAC is a community resource, advocate, and educator for Riverside County residents with disabilities.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"5\">Since its establishment, CAC has achieved community recognition and has substantially expanded its services. As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County. To better serve the Coachella Valley region, CAC relocated its offices to Palm Desert in 2006. This was in response to the needs of residents in this rural area, especially the parents of children with disabilities who do not speak English. This office has had a large impact on that under-served region of the county.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/about/\" role=\"button\">\n						Learn More About Us\n					</a>\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzavx5m71806n7wsphy1lsb8up6mv6qr6hqoaw.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/blind-person-using-a-computer-pe1z1ygnfghg757xk4za3qk776nzrio8yjtkhxlnlk.jpeg\" title=\"Blind man using his computer\" alt=\"white man with shades typing on computer\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzaycv7298bnh1n4xnmrogqi67m2mrx3hap4d4.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n			<h2>Important Covid-19 Notice</h2>		\n		<p>We are back to our normal business hours which are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except for holiday’s that fall on a weekday.</p><p>For additional information regarding CAC and the COVID-19 call us at <a style=\"color: #099c7e;\" href=\"tel:(951) 274-0358.\"><strong>(951) 274-0358.</strong></a></p><p>For more information on the COVID-19 pandemic click on this link: Stay home except for essential needs.</p><p>Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

disabilities</a></h2>		\n		<p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"10\">Paying for college is a complicated process for any aspiring student. It’s a process that raises a ton of questions: What’s a Pell Grant? What’s a Perkins Loan? Do I have to pay anything back? For students with disabilities, those questions are even more complicated. The good news: a disability is not an impediment to a college education. There are plenty of resources for those who need help applying and paying for it.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"11\">This guide, designed to work with assistive technology, can help you find these resources. Aspiring students with disabilities can use our table of contents to find the best scholarships for them. At the bottom of the page, we also list some tips on how to get federal and private aid.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/accessible-guide-to-paying-for-college-for-students-with-disabilities/\" role=\"button\">\n						Visit The Full Guide\n					</a>\n			<h2>Our Mission</h2>		\n		<p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"12\">The mission of the Community Access Center is to empower people with disabilities to control their own lives, create an accessible community, and advocate for their complete social, economic, and political integration.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"13\">We implement this vision by providing information, supportive services, and independent living skills training.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"14\">The primary purpose of the Community Access Center is to empower consumers with disabilities by providing services and information to support them in making choices that will positively affect their independence.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"15\"><strong>CAC will accomplish this through a social-rehabilitation model.

CAC is a community resource, advocate, and educator for Riverside County residents with disabilities.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"5\">Since its establishment, CAC has achieved community recognition and has substantially expanded its services. As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County. To better serve the Coachella Valley region, CAC relocated its offices to Palm Desert in 2006. This was in response to the needs of residents in this rural area, especially the parents of children with disabilities who do not speak English. This office has had a large impact on that under-served region of the county.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/about/\" role=\"button\">\n						Learn More About Us\n					</a>\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzavx5m71806n7wsphy1lsb8up6mv6qr6hqoaw.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/blind-person-using-a-computer-pe1z1ygnfghg757xk4za3qk776nzrio8yjtkhxlnlk.jpeg\" title=\"Blind man using his computer\" alt=\"white man with shades typing on computer\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzaycv7298bnh1n4xnmrogqi67m2mrx3hap4d4.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n			<h2>Important Covid-19 Notice</h2>		\n		<p>We are back to our normal business hours which are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except for holiday’s that fall on a weekday.</p><p>For additional information regarding CAC and the COVID-19 call us at <a style=\"color: #099c7e;\" href=\"tel:(951) 274-0358.\"><strong>(951) 274-0358.</strong></a></p><p>For more information on the COVID-19 pandemic click on this link: Stay home except for essential needs.</p><p>Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

CAC is a community resource, advocate, and educator for Riverside County residents with disabilities.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"5\">Since its establishment, CAC has achieved community recognition and has substantially expanded its services. As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County. To better serve the Coachella Valley region, CAC relocated its offices to Palm Desert in 2006. This was in response to the needs of residents in this rural area, especially the parents of children with disabilities who do not speak English. This office has had a large impact on that under-served region of the county.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/about/\" role=\"button\">\n						Learn More About Us\n					</a>\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzavx5m71806n7wsphy1lsb8up6mv6qr6hqoaw.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/blind-person-using-a-computer-pe1z1ygnfghg757xk4za3qk776nzrio8yjtkhxlnlk.jpeg\" title=\"Blind man using his computer\" alt=\"white man with shades typing on computer\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzaycv7298bnh1n4xnmrogqi67m2mrx3hap4d4.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n			<h2>Important Covid-19 Notice</h2>		\n		<p>We are back to our normal business hours which are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except for holiday’s that fall on a weekday.</p><p>For additional information regarding CAC and the COVID-19 call us at <a style=\"color: #099c7e;\" href=\"tel:(951) 274-0358.\"><strong>(951) 274-0358.</strong></a></p><p>For more information on the COVID-19 pandemic click on this link: Stay home except for essential needs.</p><p>Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

disabilities</a></h2>		\n		<p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"10\">Paying for college is a complicated process for any aspiring student. It’s a process that raises a ton of questions: What’s a Pell Grant? What’s a Perkins Loan? Do I have to pay anything back? For students with disabilities, those questions are even more complicated. The good news: a disability is not an impediment to a college education.

CAC is a community resource, advocate, and educator for Riverside County residents with disabilities.</p><p data-changed=\"false\" data-paragraphid=\"5\">Since its establishment, CAC has achieved community recognition and has substantially expanded its services. As a result of our efforts, a branch office opened in 1997 in Indio, with funding from the Department of Education, to serve the Coachella Valley region of Riverside County. To better serve the Coachella Valley region, CAC relocated its offices to Palm Desert in 2006. This was in response to the needs of residents in this rural area, especially the parents of children with disabilities who do not speak English. This office has had a large impact on that under-served region of the county.</p>		\n			<a href=\"/about/\" role=\"button\">\n						Learn More About Us\n					</a>\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzavx5m71806n7wsphy1lsb8up6mv6qr6hqoaw.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/blind-person-using-a-computer-pe1z1ygnfghg757xk4za3qk776nzrio8yjtkhxlnlk.jpeg\" title=\"Blind man using his computer\" alt=\"white man with shades typing on computer\" />															\n															<img src=\"https://ilcac7717.dev34.info/wp-content/uploads/elementor/thumbs/special-child-on-wheelchair-is-smiling-face-as-hap-78JU8R2-scaled-pdy6lzaycv7298bnh1n4xnmrogqi67m2mrx3hap4d4.jpg\" title=\"special child on wheelchair is smiling face as happy\" alt=\"a smiling face child on the wheelchair with a backpack\" />															\n			<h2>Important Covid-19 Notice</h2>		\n		<p>We are back to our normal business hours which are Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, except for holiday’s that fall on a weekday.</p><p>For additional information regarding CAC and the COVID-19 call us at <a style=\"color: #099c7e;\" href=\"tel:(951) 274-0358.\"><strong>(951) 274-0358.</strong></a></p><p>For more information on the COVID-19 pandemic click on this link: Stay home except for essential needs.</p><p>Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.
