Request an Accommodation

CDOC is committed to providing equitable opportunities to all individuals. In accordance with the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (504), Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 ("ADA"), and Section 1557 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010, the Colorado Department of Corrections does not discriminate against qualified individuals with disabilities on the basis of disability.

We encourage individuals with disabilities to request reasonable accommodations that will help to ensure their effective enjoyment of and participation in CDOC’s programs, services, activities, and employment practices.

  • All requests are considered on a case-by-case basis.
  • Accommodations for qualified individuals are provided at no cost to the individual.
  • Accommodation requests that would impose an undue financial or administrative burden on DPA may not be fulfilled as requested. 

Examples of accommodations include:

  • Sign language interpretation for an event, meeting, or appointment
  • An assistive listening device for an in-person meeting or event
  • Alternative document formats (such as Braille or large print)
