Idahoans are celebrating 30 Years of Community Access,
Independent Living, Employment and Activism through the Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA).
The COVID-19
pandemic means we're adapting plans for “Hands Around the Capitol 2020” to create a series of online events, beginning in July and continuing
until the end of October. We welcome your involvement!
The ADA means people with disabilities are treated the same way as others.
We'll use social media to share stories of how the ADA empowers us to live the lives we
want, and to celebrate the people who made it all possible.
The law expanded
opportunities for 304,000 Idahoans with disabilities by reducing barriers,
changing perceptions, and increasing full participation in community life.
The ADA's promise can only be reached through shared to fully implement the ADA through
education and outreach.
To help celebrate, follow activities on social media:
- Instagram ada30idaho

- Facebook handsaroundthecapitol
