Today marks the 34th Anniversary of the Americas with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA). The ADA, signed into law on July 26, 1990, was a landmark piece of legislation that broke down barriers to inclusion, but people in the disability community still experience discrimination, social stigma, and marginalization. Lifeworks recognizes the important role the ADA continues to play in ensuring greater access and opportunities for people with disabilities – but we know there is still more work to be done. That is why Lifeworks is committed to partnering with people with disabilities so that we can continue to identify barriers, address challenges, and build inclusive communities and workplaces. #LifeworksMN #ADA34 #ADAAnniversary #DisabilityInclusion
