Introducing the ADA Celebration Speaker Series Tent!

Step into the ADA Celebration Speaker Series Tent—a dedicated space celebrating Disability Pride, accessibility, and inclusion. Here, inspiring speakers from the disability community share their stories, insights, and visions for a more inclusive future. Join us for powerful conversations, community connection, and a celebration of progress made possible by the ADA. We celebrate 35 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act—35 years of progress, pride, and empowerment.

Good to know and share…

Did you know there are over 120,000 Erie County residents living with a disability. However, not all disabilities are visible or apparent on the outside of a person and that's one reason July is Disability Pride Month.

We build power when we learn about the experience and needs of our neighbors with disabilities by becoming more empathetic, understanding and inclusive.
