The NJ Law Against Discrimination in Places of Public Accommodation

All New Jersey residents have the right to be in public spaces without experiencing discrimination. This training will provide an overview of what places of public accommodation are and are not, and how the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (LAD) regulates these entities. Through case studies and other interactive exercises, participants will examine topics including disparate treatment, disparate impact, sexual harassment and other types of hostile environment harassment, reasonable accommodations, and assistance animals.

Participant Expectations from the NJ DCR: 

• Participants should log onto training as individuals, not in groups
• Participants should use a laptop or desktop computer when possible – phones and tablets are permitted but discouraged
• Participants should have their cameras on when possible
• Participants are expected to take part in polls and conversations
• Participants are expected to arrive on time
