Subject: Ohio ADA in Your Community Poll


Hello,

 

Please assist us in getting out the word about the ADA in Your Community Poll.  We are attempting to get 500 responses from Ohio residents.  We need 300 more responses.  Please forward this information onto appropriate individuals and lists.
 
Thank You,
 
Great Lakes Center Staff

 

 Rate your community's implementation  

of the  

Americans with Disabilities Act! 

 

  

People with disabilities, their family members, and their advocates are invited to complete the poll so that their voices are heard when accessibility issues are being addressed in their communities! We want to know what you have to say! 

 

SPEAK YOUR MIND!   The poll is available online at: 

www.ADAReportCard.org  

 


     

The ADA has been in effect since 1990 - nearly 20 years have passed for communities to remove physical, programmatic, and attitudinal barriers that prevent people with disabilities from becoming active participating citizens. Progress has been made, but there is still need for further compliance. The ADA POLL asks citizens from Ohio to identify how they view current implementation of the ADA in their own communities. Here is your opportunity to provide opinions and ideas about where to improve accessibility! 

 

The results of the ADA POLL will be used to "grade" your communities on their response to the ADA and will become a tool to educate policy makers, administrators and the public about the ADA. We hope that you will join us in this effort to learn more about community responses to the ADA. 

 

To request the poll in an alternative format, or for additional information, contact Dr. Vicki Pappas by phone: 1-812-855-6508 or e-mail: beheard at indiana.edu. 

 

This poll is being conducted by the Great Lakes ADA Center and ADA Ohio in conjunction with the Indiana Institute on Disability and Community
