Under the Act, a resident or an applicant for housing makes a reasonable accommodation
request whenever she makes clear to the housing provider that she is requesting an exception,
change, or adjustment to a rule, policy, practice, or service because of her disability. She should
explain what type of accommodation she is requesting and, if the need for the accommodation is
not readily apparent or not known to the provider, explain the relationship between the requested
accommodation and her disability.
