The court must ensure that court and probation services and programs are physically accessible to people with disabilities by removing architectural barriers. Examples of architectural accommodations to facilitate accessibility to people with disabilities are: providing wheelchair ramps and wheelchair accessible restrooms, adjusting the height of public information counters, labeling facilities with Braille lettering, providing adequate lighting in the courtrooms for those with vision disabilities, and providing adjustable microphones for witnesses.

The court also must ensure that its communications with people with disabilities are as effective as communications with others and that all can fully participate and enjoy the services and programs provided. The provision of auxiliary aids and services, at no charge, may be a reasonable accommodation to ensure effective communication for a person with a hearing, visual or speech disability. The type of auxiliary aid or service necessary to ensure effective communication will vary in accordance with the length and complexity of the communication involved and the individual’s specific disability and preferred mode of communication. Every effort shall be made to meet the specific needs of the individual. The court is not responsible, however, for providing devices of a personal nature such as prescription eyeglasses, hearing aids, wheelchairs, and/or personal medical or attendant care.
