- Vaccinations and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
- COVID-19 long haulers and the ADA
- Accommodating employees with COVID-related symptoms
- Requesting and negotiating accommodations during the pandemic
- Teleconference accessibility and hearing — Keeping deaf and hard of hearing employees in the loop
- Leave and unemployment related resources
- And more

Note: JAN does not provide public health, safety, or legal advice, but does offer Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance assistance and practical job accommodation strategies for returning individuals with disabilities to work during the COVID-19 pandemic.
