SUMMARY:National Disability Independence Day
DESCRIPTION:National Disability Independence Day on July 26th commemorates the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on July 26th\, 1990. \n\n\n\n#DisabilityIndependenceDay\n\n\n\nThe ADA provides protection from employment discrimination as well as better access to goods\, services\, and communications for people with disabilities. \n\n\n\nThe day not only celebrates the anniversary of the ADA but it also serves several other purposes. First\, the law first broke down barriers individuals with disabilities faced every day. It also marked a timeline of change that soon developed. Over time\, common barriers such as narrow doors and small bathroom stalls became accessible to wheelchairs. Other examples include braille signs and crosswalks for the vision impaired. The changes improved mobility and safety. \n\n\n\nBeyond structural changes\, the act motivated designers to enhanced technology. Often\, physical limitations restrict a person’s ability to access legal or health information. New assistive technologies make it possible to obtain the necessary information. \n\n\n\nAs accessibility improves\, the world continues to change in other ways. For example\, many of today’s brick and mortar businesses are ADA compliant. However\, more and more businesses switch to online versions. Those websites need to meet the needs to be accessible\, too. \n\n\n\nWith each advancement in technology\, designers need to incorporate multifunctional approaches to fit every ability. Celebrate the freedom the ADA inspires with forward-thinking design and technology.
