[admin]

The Justice Department today announced agreements with Wills Point, Texas, and Randolph County, Ga., to improve access to all aspects of civic life for individuals with disabilities. The agreements were reached under Project Civic Access (PCA), the department’s wide-ranging initiative to ensure that cities, towns and counties throughout the country comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The department has now reached 199 agreements under the PCA initiative.
“This week marks the 22nd anniversary of the passage of the ADA as the Justice Department continues to pursue nationwide compliance with this great civil rights law through its vigilant enforcement efforts,” said Thomas E. Perez, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division. “Through Project Civic Access the Justice Department has worked with large metropolitan areas with populations in the millions as well as small rural communities with residents numbering in the thousands in order to ensure that courthouses, parks, community centers, museums, libraries and all other state and local government buildings, programs, services and activities in these communities are accessible to individuals with disabilities. I commend the officials in Wills Point and Randolph County for making this commitment to provide equal access to their residents and visitors with disabilities.”
