The Town of Greenwich recognized the 31st anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act on Monday.

The event was held by the First Selectman's Advisory Committee for People with Disabilities at the town’s newly renovated library.

The Act guarantees that everyone is treated equally and fairly in all areas, including jobs, housing, transportation and physical access.

Alan Gunzburg, the chairman of the Advisory Committee for People with Disabilities told News 12 that the anniversary was “a momentous occasion.”

During the pandemic, the library was renovated with an accessible entrance and theater. The library's cafe is staffed by people with disabilities.
