Event Information

Three of the state’s leading disability advocacy organizations are joining forces to conduct a hands-on workshop to equip people with disabilities, advocates, and family members with tools, guidance, and a greater understanding of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The workshop will help participants develop effective ways to address building access and compliance issues.

Representatives from ADA Minnesota, the Metropolitan Center for Independent Living (MCIL), and the Minnesota Council on Disability (MCD) have a half-day of training planned.

The workshop will include:

  • Civic Engagement, how to get involved in your community and communicate effectively;
  • Understanding Your Rights under the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) Title III and barrier removal law;
  • and Understanding Minnesota Building Codes including technical requirements and hands-on training with measuring tools.

For more information, please call 651-646-8342.

Registration is now closed. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday!
