ADA Compliance

The Marshall Area Chamber is hosting an informative session on complying with the ADA requirements and avoiding lawsuits.

Learn about the laws governing your building and your employees.

David Fenley with the Minnesota State Council of Disability (MSCOD) will be presenting on the subject. 

Two times frames available to register for on Tuesday, August 1st.
One at 8:00 am and one at 12:00 pm
  

Outline of Presentation:
There has been a recent surge in lawsuits around the state targeting businesses for not removing physical access barriers as determined by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). In response to this surge, the Minnesota State Council on Disability (MSCOD) has dedicated staff and resources to aid business owners in their efforts to meet ADA obligations. Part of these efforts involves meeting with local businesses to raise awareness about what must be done to avoid lawsuits. By attending this presentation you will gain the tools and knowledge you need to meet all of your obligations under the ADA. MSOCD will present the ADA basics, the most common fixes and technical guidelines, and all the resources you will need to avoid lawsuits. 
 
Bio:
David Fenley
ADA/Access Coordinator
 
David has been with the Minnesota State Council on Disability since 2014 and recently transitioned from legislative work to ADA education and outreach around Minnesota. David, a certified access specialist, informs entities across the state about the ADA obligations and Minnesota's Accessibility Code.
