Does the Impairment Affect One or More Major Life Activities?

Mitigating Measures

What About Temporary Impairments?

• A temporary impairment is an impairment that is expected to last six months or less.
• Temporary impairments should be considered for Section 504 on a case-by-case basis considering:

-the expected duration -the extent to which it actually limits a major life activity and,-the ability of the individual student to recover and make-up any academic loss from the impairment

• Do not make any blanket statements that temporary impairments are not covered under Section 504.
