Not providing reasonable accommodations creates real legal and ethical risks. When accommodations aren’t offered, individuals with disabilities can experience discriminatory treatment, and the organization can face liability for violating civil rights laws. This can lead to lawsuits, enforceable settlements or judgments, penalties, and orders to change policies or practices, along with serious hits to reputation and public trust. The other options miss the point: compliance and access tend to bolster trust, while noncompliance brings disputes and legal exposure rather than enhancement of status.
