The City of Reno welcomes the opportunity to provide accommodations to people with disabilities so that full participation in leisure and recreation programs, classes, services and facilities may be enjoyed by all. Department staff embrace the provision of the Americans with Disabilities Act. If you or a family member require a reasonable accommodation to participate in a program, please complete the Accommodations Request pdf or submit online a minimum of five business days prior to the start of the program. 

Upon notification, efforts will be made to accommodate your request. If you have any questions or need additional information please contact the Inclusion Services staff. Hearing impaired individuals can use Nevada Relay - dial 711 for assistance.

Access For All

Personal Care Assistance

Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to participate in our programs; however, those needing assistance with toileting, feeding, or dressing must make personal arrangements for this assistance.

Accessible Facilities

The City of Reno's facilities have been designed or remodeled and specialty equipment has been acquired to improve accessibility and functionality.
