While Rocky Mountain ADA Center is happy to provide you assistance, in some cases appropriate assistance is referral since the Americans with Disabilities Act does not cover housing issues. The Fair Housing Act is a separate federal law which provides housing protections for protected classes such as disability.

For more information regarding FHA and housing, you may reach out to your local Fair Housing Authority or HUD regional offices (https://bit.ly/47S2lpw).

Also, please understand that the Air Carrier Access Act applies to air travel instead of the ADA, and is enforced by the Department of Transportation (https://bit.ly/3PTdGQa).
