Creating disability awareness is ongoing at United Spinal. We get the disability message out to millions of people every year on topics ranging from public policy and disability etiquette to veterans benefits and the latest wheelchair innovations.

Millions of people each year are made aware of disability issues through our public service mailings, web sites, journals and magazines, conferences and instructional sessions, informative publications, participatory events, email alerts, television and press media, and by our greatest assets, our members and supporters. You can help to get the word out. Donate Today.   

 
Our Free ADA Pamphlet will get you up to speed on disability employment rights.

Many regard the ADA as the most sweeping piece of civil rights legislation since the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Others believe that because of the many structural and communications barriers the ADA will remove, it is the farthest-reaching civil rights law ever enacted.

Varios consideran la Ley ADA como la más extensa pieza de legislación desde el Acta de Derechos Civiles de 1964 (Civil Rights of 1964). Otros creen que debido a las barreras estructurales y de comunicación que serian removidas por la Ley ADA, es la más comprensiva ley de derechos civiles que se ha decretado hasta ahora.
