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.
