You Are Invited: Virtual Recognition of the 31st Anniversary of the ADA

 

 

In recognition of the 31st Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities
Act (ADA) we are excited to celebrate, with you, Disability PRIDE!!! 

 

This Event will be VIRTUAL and held via Zoom. We will recognize, and
celebrate with PRIDE, the intersection of the Disability and LGBTQIA+
Communities!

 

Please join us for a candid discussion with a diverse panel of Disability
Rights Activists, Advocates, Community Organizers,  and Leaders. The panel
discussion will be hosted by Ramona Peel, Lead Trainer for The Equitas
Health Institute.

 

The signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a landmark
example of how people, from every race - color - gender - religion - culture
- etc., united in power and created a piece of legislation that is the
foundation of equality for all individuals. One voice chanted loud and proud
and demanded change for ALL Americans with Disabilities. The ADA is a civil
rights law that prohibits discrimination against individuals with
disabilities in all areas of public life, including jobs, schools,
transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the
general public. But, with every law, there are problems and still more work
to be done. 

 

We invite you to join our virtual celebration of this landmark legislation. 

 

If you have questions for our presenters PLEASE email them in advance to:

Questions will NOT be taken live due to our time limits. I will ask as many
questions as I can given the limited amount of time.

easy viewing. A C-Print Captionist we will streaming live as well. The IP
