Celebrate with a Free ADA T-shirt!

Everyone statewide is welcome to participate in this fun ADA celebration activity and you don’t have to be a person with a disability! 

Request a t-shirt by calling your local Center for Independent Living or make a request through our campaign email: idaho30yearADA@gmail.com

This is the easy part – Wear your t-shirt!

Take a photo of you (or your group) somewhere, doing something, that connects with the ADA experience you want to share. If pictures have bad resolution, we cannot use them, so please be sure to set your camera to the highest quality settings. Need ideas for things you can do?

-Pose with your service dog in a business, park or on the sidewalk.
-Use your assistive technology
-Use a form of effective communication like reading large print or Braille menus, using a video phone, working with a sign language interpreter, watching a video with captioning.
-Take a photo getting on to accessible transportation
-Using the audible/vibrating pedestrian signals at a crosswalk
-Getting in to your vehicle in an accessible parking space
-Using your wheelchair on curb cuts, ramps and accessible sidewalks.
-Having fun on accessible playground equipment, lifts into public pools, out on accessible trails, boating docks, fishing piers, or enjoying accessible beaches with your wheelchair.

Write a short explanation of the picture and what you are doing or how the things in the picture help you. Just need a sentence or two!

Include the first names of those in the photo or if you are in a group of people, identify who you represent.

Email the picture and description during July 17 – October 31 to idaho30yearADA@gmail.com or post it to our Facebook page.
