Today, we celebrate 36 years since the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a landmark moment in the fight for equal rights and accessibility.

The ADA affirmed that people with disabilities deserve full and equal participation in all areas of public life. Its impact continues to shape a more inclusive and accessible world, but the work is not finished.

At the Legal Clinic for the Disabled, we remain committed to protecting these rights and advancing the promise of the ADA every day.

Right now, in Pennsylvania, over 11,000 individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities are waiting—some for years—for the supports they need to live safe, meaningful lives. More than 4,200 are in crisis and urgently need services that aren’t yet available.

We have a critical opportunity to change that—but we need YOUR voice to make it happen.

Contact your State Senator and Representative and urge them to support critical investments in the state budget to strengthen services, support families, and build a more inclusive Pennsylvania.
