Personal Assistance Services (PAS) are assistive services provided to an individual with disabilities for performing activities of daily living, such as eating and using the restroom. Agencies are only required to provide PAS when the individual is working or on work-related travel. It is the James Madison Memorial Fellowship Foundation's policy to provide PAS to its employees in accordance with 29 Code of Federal Regulations § 1614.203(d)(5), absent undue hardship on the agency. In addition, the James Madison Memorial Fellowship Foundation shall not discriminate against individuals in employment decisions based on their need for PAS.

Employees requesting PAS shall notify Executive Secretary or Administrative Officer to initiate the process. In order to address requests for PAS, employees shall follow the Policy for Personal Assistance Services provided in the Reasonable Accommodation Program for Employees and Applicants.

Additional information about PAS can be found on the EEOC website.
