It has become necessary to emphasize that the ACCESS "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs" program only works when the professional accessibility architects of ACCESS visit the site by Federal Court order and perform the detailed ADA audit which includes some 500 plus building elements. 

To our "Watchdogs in Wheelchairs", remember that your part in this process of making buildings ADA compliant is to follow the ACCESS easy four steps:
  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 and public restroom.
  3. Outside of the building take 2-3 photos of the accessible parking and overall pictures of the building.
  4. Email us the photos and a copy of your hotel bill to hfalstad@accessts.net.
Once received, ACCESS' General Counsel will determine whether there is standing to file in the Federal Courts.

Yes, I know ADA accessibility is better than it was 20 years ago.  As an 18 year veteran professional accessibility architect, I can tell you we still have a long way to go in getting buildings ADA compliant.  We at ACCESS are here to make it happen for you.  If you're not on board yet, contact us today.  We are dedicated to teaming with you to make all building ADA compliant, one building at a time!
