I just talked to someone at the Job Accommodations Network today and they were very helpful. I'm somewhat at a disadvantage, in that it's my husband's job and I don't have any good way to be his Advocate yet, and I need to do some reconnaissance to find out who the HR person is. JAN suggested I start there to see if the company has a process already in place for asking for accommodations.
it's an oxymoron, with my husband, it seems an oxymoron to 'self advocate'. He doesn't know how to initiate anything
