Has the ADA Made a Difference in Your Life?

Justin Dart's hat, Justin Dart speaks at the 10 annversary of the ADA. Line drawing of Justin Dart by Sher Stewart.

The national network of ADA & IT Technical Assistance Centers, also known as DBTACs, seeks your comments on your experiences with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Your feedback on your experiences in employment, building access and access to public services will help the Centers to identify training gaps and issues needing increased technical assistance. Visit the online form and tell us what has worked for you, what barriers you still encounter, and how the ADA has made a difference in your life. The survey will only take a few minutes and is confidential. The only identification requested is the state in which you reside.

If you have not already completed this survey, please take a moment to do so. Also, if you know of others whose lives have been impacted by the ADA, please forward to them.

Thanks for assisting us; we are interested in your successes and concerns!

Visit www.adata.org and share your experience (the survey is on the center of the webpage, click on: Share Your Opinions!).
