2nd Annual Spirit of ADA Celebration

 

Come and celebrate the 16th anniversary of the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act, at the Chattanooga Choo Choo Convention Center Ballroom, to be held on Wednesday, August 09, 2006, 10:00am until 1:00pm.

 

The Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law on the White House lawn on July 26, 1990.  It guarantees equal opportunity and inclusion of persons with disabilities in all aspects of American life.  Help us to share with Chattanoogans the fact that persons with disabilities have a voice and are active members of this community!

 

Area non-profit agencies will share information about their services available for the elderly and for persons with disabilities.  David Morris from Habitat International will be our keynote speaker.  There will be an art exhibit; musicians and dancers as well as KIds on the Block will perform.  What an opportunity to learn about access for persons with disabilities within our community.  Come and join us for a fun-filled anniversary celebration of ADA.  All are welcome.

 

Event sponsors include the Mayor's Council on Disability, Moccasin Bend Mental Health Institute, Signal Centers, Orange Grove Center, the Vital Center and Merrill Lynch.
