Positive Thinking!

Rainey, I agree with you 100% with your program "Positive About Disabled People".  Some will complain and want other to do something for them, others will grab the reins and play the cards they were dealt.  We have the same kind of people in the business world.  We at ACCESS have grabbed the bulls by the horn and have come up with a new program to get buildings ADA compliant.  And, to my knowledge, it has never been done before.

For the past 10 years, I have seen attorneys filing building ADA non-compliant complaints to extort money from building owners and ACCESS wants no part of the business.  The ACCESS "Watchdog in Wheelchairs" program is composed of professional architects that want to get building ADA compliant, so that we can certify that they are ADA compliant.

Rainey, send me some of those positive people.  They are our team captains in our "Watchdog in Wheelchairs" program because they have "standing" in Federal Court where the complaint is filed, they sign the complaint.  All this is at no cost tot them because ADA is Civil Rights Law where filing fees are free and attorney fees and attorney costs (ACCESS is an expert witness so a cost of the attorney) are also free, as these costs are the responsibility of the building owners.

Rainey, today and for the next several months we at ACCESS are concentrating on the lodging industry; hotels, motels and time-shares.  Send me those positive disabled people and lets get to work getting buildings ADA compliant for them and all other disabled people that follow.  Let's feel good about being able to do our part in getting building ADA compliant.  Here are the simple steps required:
  1. Book an accessible room with 2-beds and a roll-in shower.
  2. Using a color digital camera, take 2-3 photos of the room, the roll-in shower, the lobby area and public restrooms.
  3. Take 2-3 photos outside to include the accessible parking and overall photos of the buildings.
  4. Email the photos and your hotel bill to ACCESS at hfalstad@accessts.net.
ACCESS will review to determine whether you have enough "standing" to file at the Federal Courts.  That's it.  It's simple, it's easy and it's at no cost to you.

Tell Rainey you're a positive disabled person wanting to join the cause to make every building ADA compliant one building at a time.  Join ACCESS and become a team captain.  Do it today!

Cheers to all our "Watchdog in Wheelchairs" team captains and to the professionals at ACCESS!
