 Help Available for ADA Compliance Site Reviews

The Northwest ADA & Information Technology Center provides consultant services concerning ADA and Rehabilitation Act (Section 504) issues. Their consultants provide education and training, and can also provide a physical site review for your facility, identifying accessibility barriers and solutions.

The review will help your organization ensure that it is meeting its obligations under the ADA. Their consultants will conduct a thorough site review, including a detailed report outlining accessible features and architectural, communication and programmatic barriers.

The initial consultation with your agency, provided at no cost, will identify the services your organization may benefit from, as well as an initial survey of your facility.

Upon request, a Letter of Agreement will identify additional costs associated with educational and training services. This letter may also include a flat fee estimate for additional site review services and a facility report customized for your organization.

The Northwest ADA & Information Technology Center is one of ten federally-designated Disability and Business Technical Assistance Centers located across the U.S., with services supported by federal grant dollars.
