This July 26, we celebrate the passing of the American with Disabilities Act (ADA). The Act offers legal protection against discrimination in public life against folks with disabilities.

Justin Dart, Judy Huemann, and many others were instrumental in getting the Act passed in 1990. They worked with different administrations to break down barriers for folks with disabilities. Thanks to the ADA, public and private institutions require accommodations in their spaces!
