ADA Guidelines

The American Disability Act requires every building owner of a public facility that has an assemblage area, to provide assistive listening devices for their customers.  The 2010 Standards, section 219, require assistive listening systems in spaces where communication is integral to the space and audio amplification is provided and in courtrooms.

In the assembly area, there must be a sign stating the availability of the assistive listening device or system, so that people entering the room or facility know that it is an option for them. The signage shall have the international symbol of hearing loss.
