What is the National ADA Accessibility Compliance Network? July 26, 2010 marked 20 years since President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law. The Americans with Disabilities Act, often referred to as the ADA, is a landmark piece of legislation whose main purpose is to provide protection from discrimination to individuals with disabilities and reduce or eliminate many of the barriers that those with disabilities face on a day-to-day basis. National ADA Accessibility Compliance Network (NADAACN) promotes public access for the disabled community, one public facility at a time, by educating business owners on the ADA Title III “readily achievable” standards and modifications, in an effort at attempting to help businesses from potential litigation. Title III of the ADA - The public accommodations requirement: provides that “No individual shall be discriminated against on the basis of disability in the full and equal enjoyment of the goods, services, facilities privileges, advantages, or accommodations of any place of public accommodation by any person who owns, leases (or leases to) or operates a place of public accommodation ...” How can NADAACN assist you and your business? NADAACN conducts an initial analysis of your facility and provides an ADA checklist based on the “readily achievable” modifications needed to comply with the ADA. Once you become compliant under the ADA “readily achievable” modifications standards, an NADAACN decal will be placed on your businesses storefront window. Your business will appear on the National ADAACN website (under your appropriate state) indicating compliance and accessibility. As a member of NADAACN individuals with disabilities will be able to locate ADA friendly business for patronage and anonymously report encounters of violations directly to our National Call Center. When a call is received at our National Call Center we will contact your business and advise you of the customers complaint, giving you the opportunity to correct the problem, in an effort to promote constant awareness and continuous accessibility for the disabled community.
