Easter Seals Project ACTION is hosting a webinar and an online course on fixed-route and paratransit services in April, both free of charge. For both e-learning events, credits are available for the ADA Coordinator Training Certification Program (visit the ACTCP website to find out more).

Frequently Asked Questions on the ADA: Fixed Route and Paratransit
Webinar
Date:
April 10 at 2 p.m. ET
Registration Deadline: April 8
To Register: CLICK HERE

Have you ever wondered how many companions are allowed to ride with an ADA-complementary paratransit passenger? Or how much assistance a bus operator is required to provide to a passenger with a disability when boarding the bus? Or how many service animals a person with a disability can bring on a fixed-route bus? In this session, ESPA staff will discuss questions frequently received on the Americans with Disabilities Act with regard to fixed-route and ADA-complementary paratransit services. Presenters will also have a question and answer period, so come prepared with your ADA questions. To register, please email your name, ZIP code, phone number, email address, organization, and job title to registration@easterseals.com with "FAQ on the ADA" in the subject line. To ask the presenter questions in advance or for general inquiries about the event, please contact us at webinars@easterseals.com and put "FAQ on the ADA" in the subject line.
