The ACLU works to create a Wyoming that is free from discrimination against individuals with disabilities. They have resources about your rights as an employee and provide you with examples of discrimination in the workplace. They also provide additional resouces to places such as The Job Accommodation Network, The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the National Employment Lawyers Association.
