Why now
Our programs present the human side of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Beyond the changes to the built environment mandated by ADA, well-informed and balanced one-to-one interaction with disabled or special-needs clients and workers makes all the difference in creating loyalty and building brand awareness.
More than 50 million Americans have a physical or cognitive impairment that affects travel, shopping, professional and leisure activity. As the population ages, this number will grow not only on its own but as a percentage of the population as a whole, with the number of disabled more than doubling by mid century. Advances in accessible technology and mobility will greatly improve universal access for this large group. The same changes will also increase the earnings power and independence of disabled people, and wheelchair users, the visually and hearing impaired as well as those with cognitive challenges will become more active and visible participants in the American community. Those enterprises that are best prepared in training and education for changing circumstances among their clients and workers will be ahead of the curve.
