The Disability Self-Assessment Checklist looks like a great resource for businesses to ensure they are accessible to the community. I think this would be a great tool for businesses to use now during the pandemic. Air quality (#12) is applicable now more than ever. I am always curious about what measures stores are taking in terms of sanitation, mask-wearing, and social distancing.
