Team Daniel is on The List (under North Carolina), now it’s time for you to take action and get businesses and organizations in your community to adopt the Proclamation of Recommitment!
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which protects people with disabilities from discrimination, was signed into law on July 26, 1990 by President H.W. Bush. Now Disability Rights North Carolina is asking businesses, organizations and local governments to adopt a Proclamation of Recommitment to the mission of the ADA.
To adopt the Proclamation of Recommitment visit http://cts.vresp.com/c/?DisabilityRightsNort/468a32e202/7163976289/843d353720 and fill out the form. Disability Rights North Carolina’s goal is to get 500 signatures by July 26, 2010. Pass the link along to businesses and organizations in your area! It’s simple and easy, and the adoption of the Proclamation is part of an even BIGGER effort.
The National ADA Symposium is heading up a nationwide effort to get 2,010 organizations, businesses and governments to adopt the Proclamation of Recommitment as an affirmation of the mission of the ADA. All organizations, businesses and governments that adopt the Proclamation of Recommitment will be posted on their website, http://www.2010anniversary.org/. The National ADA Symposium will hold its annual conference on June 20-23 in Denver, Colorado.
Those who have signed the Proclamation so far include the state of Colorado, City of San Francisco, the North Carolina Council on Developmental Disabilities and the U.S. Business Leadership Network.
Don’t you want your local businesses, organizations and government to show their support for the Americans with Disabilities Act?
