Ron Littlefield, Mayor
Message from the Mayor:
We have a lot of people in
Chattanooga that can do a better job if we (the City) do a better job helping
them along. In the coming months and years we’re going to need all of your
input for this committee to be successful. With a diverse network of
information, the dedicated people on this council will tell me what I need to
know – in no uncertain terms. It’s not going to be easy changing the way we do
things, and change isn’t going to happen over night. But I can assure you, with
the Council on Disability as my partner in this new endeavor, together we can make
Chattanooga a better place for everyone to live, work and play.”
Mission Statement
The Mayor’s Council on Disability's overall mission is to promote policies,
programs, practices, and procedures that give equal opportunity for all individuals with disabilities,
regardless of the nature or severity of the disability; and to empower individuals with disabilities
to achieve economic self-sufficiency, independent living, and inclusion and integration into all
aspects of society.
