Today marks the 34th Anniversary of National Disability Independence Day! 🎉 At CDEC, we're honored to support the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and its impact on ensuring equal rights for all. This landmark legislation continues to break down barriers and promote inclusion in our communities. From jobs to schools, transportation to public spaces, the ADA has paved the way for a more accessible and equitable society. Do you know about Early Intervention Colorado? They provide vital support to families with young children, from birth to age three, who may have developmental delays or disabilities.
