ADA Compliance--Merging of Social & Environmental Sustainability

Community livability goes resource consumption and GHG emissions--it includes social welfare, human health and equal access. Join the Committee on the Environment on Friday, June 5th at noon for a discussion on the built environment, the ADA and sustainable accessibility.

Through experiential narratives of members of the disabled community, we will take a broader look at sustainability using the ADA as a baseline, shifting the focus from individual building design and code requirements to the needs of an accessible, sustainable system as a whole.

Moderator: Michael Coleman, AIA
Panelists: Barry Ryan, Chris Finn, and Kris Lange
