Description
Happy 30th birthday to the Americans with Disabilities Act! This life-changing act was borne out of the Independent Living Movement, which challenged the idea that people with disabilities should be confined to institutions. Civil rights leaders advocated for systems change that would allow people with disabilities to flourish independently in their communities. Join us for an honest and entertaining talk about the ADA with Abilities in Motion’s Board President, Mike Gerhard, and Executive Director, Stephanie Quigley.For more information about Abilities in Motion, go to our website at: https://www.abilitiesinmotion.org/ or you can follow us on social media.Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AbilitiesinMotionPALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/abilitiesinmotion/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSEXzEkE_CK5WYmOhMAN4Aw
