This article examines the applicability of the antidiscrimination provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 to The Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act (TWWIIA) passed in 1999. Among other policy changes, under the Ticket to Work program, eligible recipients of disability insurance (SSDI) and supplemental income (SSI) receive a voucher or "ticket" to obtain services from qualified employment networks (ENs). ENs provide employment services and supports to designated beneficiaries and must meet certain qualification requirements. The ADA is applicable to ENs in several ways: primarily, in the EN's responsibility to provide appropriate access and services to program participants. This article discusses application of the ADA to the Ticket Program as ENs begin to serve program beneficiaries.
本文探讨了1990年《美国残疾人法案》（ADA）中的反歧视条款对1999年通过的《工作票与工作激励改进法案》（TWWIIA）的适用性。在其他政策变化中，根据“工作票”计划，符合条件的残疾保险（SSDI）和补充收入（SSI）领取者会获得一张代金券或“工作票”，以便从合格的就业网络（ENs）获取服务。就业网络向指定受益人提供就业服务和支持，并且必须满足某些资格要求。《美国残疾人法案》在几个方面适用于就业网络：主要是就业网络有责任为项目参与者提供适当的便利条件和服务。本文讨论了随着就业网络开始为项目受益人提供服务，《美国残疾人法案》对“工作票”计划的适用情况。
