Accessibility Opens Doors
Assistive Technology
We help individuals identify and acquire technology necessary to help students access their curriculum, assist individuals who want to work become employable and successful in the job market, and help people with disabilities enjoy life and stay engaged with their communities.
Access and Accommodation
We help with a range of accessibility and accommodation issues including access to buildings and programming, access to communication for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing, and protections for individuals who have service animals.
Service and Companion Animals
Individuals with disabilities have the right to bring their service animals onto business premises in whatever areas customers are generally allowed. We help individuals with disabilities resolve a wide range of accessibility and accommodation issues including protections for individuals who have service animals.
Architectural Access
We work toward making government services and buildings, polling places and voting, businesses, universities and colleges, hospitals and other private places of accommodation accessible to all persons with disabilities.

Client Stories
Fighting Against Housing Discrimination
We stepped in when a landlord refused to rent to Kathleen because she has a disability and might require accommodations in the future. Kathleen and her son were able to happily settle in to their new place.
Helping Our Client Carry the Load
Diane, who has orthopedic impairments which limit her mobility, was unable to carry her laundry from her third-floor apartment to the laundry room in the basement of her building without severe back pain.
Breathing a Little Bit Easier
We worked with Wendy to successfully request both a structural modification to her windows and an accommodation to the building policy so she could use a window unit once her windows were changed. Now Wendy can breathe better and feels more secure in her apartment.
