To Mobility and Beyond – The Importance of Accessible Pedestrian Signals and How to Obtain Them Through Litigation

Join Chris Bell, J.D., Janet Barlow, COMS, Lori Scharff, and Torie Atkinson from Disability Rights Advocates as they discuss the importance of accessible Pedestrian Signals (APSs) to our safety and mobility and how to use litigation under the ADA and Section 504 to compel public agencies to install them on a systemic basis. Current litigation brought by ACB of NY and ACB of Metro Chicago  are also discussed as examples of what may be accomplished using the courts to advocate for APSs in your area.
