- W304210515 abstract "Providing service and engagement opportunities - regardless of a member's abilities or disabilities - is a major responsibility that the National FFA Organization (FFA) is committed to fulfilling. Enacting the American with Disabilities Act is part of our role in offering equitable experiences for every member attending, or participating in, all national level activities. FFA is dedicated to working in partnership with local advisors to ensure that our members with special needs are provided these opportunities, and also to work so that members have a positive and satisfying learning experience. In this process we must recognize that there are two key situations ( 1 ) members who participate in general activities (Washington Leadership Conference, The National FFA Convention & Expo or State President's Conference) and, (2) members in competition activities (SAE-based awards, CDE, Agriscience, National Chapter and National Officer Election Process). General Activities, Degree Ceremonies or Other Activities Sponsored and Organized by FFA: During the registration process for all noncompetitive activities the advisor or the member will be provided the opportunity to request special needs accommodations for the member's disability as outlined by the Americans with Disabilities Act. When registering for an activity, FFA requests nonspecific information - mostly related to accommodations - about the member. Disclosure of the disability itself is not asked for, or required, at this point in the process. The FFA Special Needs Specialist contacts the teacher, parent or member prior to the event to now gather specific information, including but not limited to the medical diagnosis related to the request. The data collected during the registration process and in subsequent conversations with the advisor, member or parent are kept in the strictest of confidence, with only the FFA Special Needs Specialist (in some cases, a qualified third party), having access to the details. The qualified third party is typically called in to ensure that FFA follows ADA requirements, while providing the best possible experience for the member. After a member's accommodations for FFA events have been determined, the specifics will be outlined in a letter to the advisor, member, parent or guardian, and FFA staff responsible for the program, event, or activity. No information related to the medical diagnosis will be provided to FFA staff responsible for program, event or activity operations. Providing accommodations for noncompetitive events is the responsibility of FFA - and the member's home school or state organization. During the process to determine level and type of accommodations, the FFA Special Needs Specialist and the advisor will discuss and determine the level of financial responsibility incurred by both FFA and the local school system or state association. For members with disabilities, the school system may receive additional financial support through state or federal funding. For example; when accommodating a member using a wheelchair or other mobility device, the local school system or parents are responsible for securing transportation to and from the event. Once the member arrives at the event location, it is the responsibility of FFA to ensure that all facilities are ADA compliant; and, if the event or activity includes travel from the primary site to other locations, that appropriate transportation is provided. The deadline for requesting accommodations will be the close of the registration process which is normally 10 business days prior to the event. Earlier is better! For WLC, the request must be made 10 business days before the start of the week that the participant will be attending. Requests made after the deadline or onsite requests will be reviewed by the compliance team. However, FFA makes no guarantee that we can secure and provide the requested accommodations for a late request. Competitive Events, Activities or Award Programs Organized by FFA For our competing members who have a need for special accommodations, FFA has a different formal operational policy and procedure for requesting accommodations from General Activities. …" @default.
