Where this section sits in the code
  1. Title 45—Public Welfare
  2. Subtitle B—Regulations Relating to Public Welfare
  3. CHAPTER XI—NATIONAL FOUNDATION ON THE ARTS AND THE HUMANITIES
  4. SUBCHAPTER B—NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE ARTS
  5. PART 1151—NONDISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF HANDICAP
  6. Subpart A—General Provisions

(a) Recipients are not excused from complying with this part as a result of state or local laws which limit the eligibility of handicapped persons to receive services or to practice a profession or occupation.

(b) The presence of limited employment opportunities in a particular profession does not excuse a recipient from complying with the regulation. For example, a music school receiving Endowment financial assistance could not deny admission to a qualified blind applicant because a blind singer may experience more difficulty than a nonhandicapped singer in finding a job.
