• The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) became law on July 26, 1990, after approximately teo years of intensive work on the part of legislators, persons with disabilities, and concerned citizens.  It is arguably the most comprehensive formulation of the rights of people with disabilities in the history of the United States or of any other nation.
• The ADA’s impact can hardly be overestimated.  More than forty million Americans have some kind of physical, sensory, cognitive, or mental disability.  Virtually every individual and every family in the United States is touched at some time or another by the experience of disability – their own or that of someone close to them.  The ADA is far-reaching and has the potential to benefit almost everyone.
• The ADA requires nondiscriminatory policies in institutions that serve the public, whether.  It seeks to ensure that persons with disabilities are afforded the same rights as other American citizens.
