  • When developing an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance plan, consider the perspective of people with disabilities and consult them whenever possible.

  • Be proactive, not reactive.

  • Don't wait to be sued; instead, take actions now to comply with the ADA.

  • Be on the lookout for barriers to physical access, effective communication, and the accessibility of your organization's website.
