Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act is a federal civil-rights law that protects students with disabilities from discrimination in schools that receive federal funding. It ensures that eligible students have equal access to education by requiring schools to provide accommodations, supports, and services that meet individual needs as effectively as those of students without disabilities.
Unlike special education under IDEA, Section 504 is about equal opportunity, not special programs.
