THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT - 30


A GUIDE TO UNIVERSAL DESIGN

Study conducted by
the American Association of Retired Persons


Ninety percent of people ages 65 and over want to continue living in their current residence as long as possible.

There are more than one million households with a resident over the age of 65 with a disability in accommodations that lack accessible features.

People with disabilities who live in accessible homes (or retirement facilities or similar residences) still need to access the homes of their relatives, friends and neighbors.
