We will be screening the PBS short documentary Change Not Charity: The Americans with Disabilities Act. Following the film, Judy Woodruff will moderate a panel discussion featuring legislators who helped shape and pass the ADA, as well as those who participated in the making of the documentary. Panelists will reflect on progress made, strategies, the determined advocates who changed the civil rights landscape for people with disabilities, and challenges ahead. A livestream will be available for those wishing to attend virtually.
