ADA Celebration: 20 Years Toward Inclusion

This milestone of U.S. civil rights legislation protects people with disabilities from discrimination in the areas of employment, transportation, and public accommodation.  The law requires a wide range of public and private establishments to make new and renovated facilities accessible to people with disabilities and to make “readily achievable” changes to existing facilities in order to increase accessibility.

Come join the celebration of this landmark legislation and reinvest yourself in a commitment to support people with disabilities in our community.
