We at ADACalifornia.com would like to make you aware of California Senate Bill (SB 1608) this bill is a comprehensive and balanced measure that protects important civil rights and assists businesses in complying with accessibility laws. SB 1608 was two-year bi-partisan effort to improve accessibility for Californians with disabilities and reduce businesses' exposure to expensive litigation over access violations.

ADA is all about equality for people, also referred to as your "Civil Rights" It's also all about BARRIERS .

Here are some of the ADA barriers which includes: facility access, programs, services, policy, practice, equipment that limits or denies equal access opportunities for an individual with a disability.

The ADA requires companies providing goods and services to the public to take certain limited steps to improve access to existing places of business. This mandate includes the obligation to remove barriers from existing buildings when it is readily achievable to do so. Readily achievable means easily accomplishable and able to be carried out without much difficulty or expense.

These BARRIERS needs to be identified and removed as soon as possible. Other BARRIERS not identified as Readily Achievable may be placed on a transition plan.
