Celebrating 28 Years of the ADA

August 9, 2018 by YTI Web

Late last month, people across the nation marked the 28th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in a variety of ways, including formal statements from business and community leaders. Among these voices was Deputy Assistant Secretary of Labor for Disability Employment Policy Jennifer Sheehy, who penned a blog post about the ADA’s role in helping the U.S. Department of Labor deliver on its commitment to “ensuring all Americans can access good, family-sustaining jobs” and how it meets “the needs of workers with disabilities, and the job creators who hire them.” Read Sheehy’s blog post.
