The Committee strives to advocate for the rights of people in our community who have disabilities. Throughout the year, specific events are held to bring
awareness and information to our citizens. Technical assistance is provided to the business community, private individuals, governmental entities, and non-profit
organizations. The goals of this service are to improve the quality of life for people who have disabilities through enhancing the knowledge base of entities in the
community; and to further serve as a community-based advocacy group enhancing the ability of local entities to comply with Federal Civil Rights legislation.
