"Watchdogs in Wheelchairs": Jerry (2)

I have talked about Jerry, one of our first "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs" before.  He will be visiting a Hilton property in the near future.  He had some surgery earlier this year.  I sent Jerry a copy of the final rule, all 303 pages.  Jerry has not been able to look at it yet.  He told me his hands do not function so he can't turn the pages.  He will need someone to turn those pages for him so he can get them scanned into his computer.  The degree of which some of  our "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs"are handicapped is an eye opener to me...every day.  And their commitment to the ACCESS program of getting all building ADA compliant for all persons that are handicapped who will directly benefit from your efforts is a reward in itself.  It is a real privilege for me, an architect who has specialized in building accessibility compliance for the last 18 years to bring the professionalism of ACCESS to the "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs".  Today we are concentrating on the lodging industry which includes hotels, motels and time-shares.  Take your digital camera with you when you're traveling this month. 

Come join Jerry in the "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs" program.  Let me hear from you today...Jerry needs you to also be active in getting buildings ADA compliant.
