July 26 marks the 25th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). To celebrate, the ADA National Network has created a tool kit for use by the public and the media. This tool kit includes background and history on the ADA, statistics, videos, social media messages, and other resources.  

ADA Social Media Toolkit

https://www.disability.gov/newsroom/ada-25-social-media-toolkit/

Disability.gov released its ADA 25 Social Media Toolkit as part of its celebration of the 25th anniversary of the ADA. The toolkit includes sample tweets and Facebook posts, social media graphics, and a blog post that can be shared and re-tweeted to help readers join in the celebration. Disability.gov will be celebrating the ADA on social media during July using the hashtag #DgovADA25. In addition, the site's Disability.Blog will feature special guest posts from individuals who played a role in the ADA’s history, as well as those who continue to champion full participation today.

Tybee Surfers for Autism Beach Festival

Registration for Surfers for Autism at Tybee Island, GA is now open!  

It will take place on Saturday, September 12, 2015. 

At a Surfers For Autism event, our surfers are provided a safe, fun, judgement free environment where highly skilled surf instructors carefully guide them into waves. Our surfers and their families are treated like rock stars and enjoy a day filled with a range of activities including stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, live music, face-painting, games, fire engine tours and much more. A catered lunch is also provided, all at no cost to registered participants, their families and volunteers.

This is a very special day where children with developmental delays interact with typical peers and wow families with their capabilities. These events are examples of inclusion at the highest level.
