THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT AT 30 -- PART 6

VOICES OF VICTORY, CELEBRATION OF CIVIL RIGHTS
AND REMAINING CHALLENGES 
Ciotti founded a NP group that represents the rights of patients with spinal cord injuries (SCI) and other PWDs. 

She knows the ADA paved the way to her having a successful business in our nation’s capital.

Ciotti, who counts legendary disability rights advocate/Crip Camp star Judy Heumann as a mentor, has campaigned for everything from automatic door openers at medical centers to more roll-in showers in public sector and private sector multifamily buildings. 

Combining ADA and Fair Housing advocacy, she first got interested in more accessibility in public housing high rises.
