SERVICE ANIMALS & EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS - ADA
US DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE & ADA #78957788
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects people with disabilities from discrimination. See below for info about service animals and emotional support animals. There is no official registry for service animals or emotional support animals, but some businesses, etc may request a letter explaining why an emotional support animal is needed.
California law allows persons with disabilities to bring trained service dogs and psychiatric service dogs, but not emotional support animals, to all public places.
Service Animals are:
- Dogs
- Any breed and any size of dog
- Trained to perform a task directly related to a person’s disability
- Required to be certified or go through a professional training program
- Required to wear a vest or other ID that indicates they’re a service dog
- Emotional support or comfort dogs, because providing emotional support or comfort is not a task related to a person’s disability
