Can a person with a disability request accommodations for mediation?
General Mediation
Answer
Yes. Mediation programs and courts should address reasonable accessibility needs, which may include physical access, communication aids, interpreters, captioning, remote participation, or scheduling adjustments. The particular accommodation depends on the participant's needs and the forum.
