Norwalk schedules ADA staff training for June 24; committee plans July ADA Awareness Month events
Summary
The committee scheduled a staff ADA training for June 24 and discussed July ADA Awareness Month activities, including a mayoral proclamation and outreach with Star Inc. and Ability Beyond; the New England ADA Center will deliver virtual, scenario-based training.
Acting chair Bill announced a staff training on June 24 delivered virtually by the New England ADA Center; he described the session as "scenario based" and expected it to run about an hour beginning at 10:00 a.m. He asked department heads and the law department to attend to provide clarity on reasonable modifications and effective communication.
The committee also discussed ADA Awareness Month in July. Bill said the mayor will read a proclamation during a second- or third-week July event and that the committee will invite community organizations such as Star Inc. and Ability Beyond to participate. Members suggested using the new rec center space for workshops and a short speaker series to keep awareness activities going throughout the month rather than as a single event.
