I think this website had the potential to be very useful, however when I copy and paste the link into a new tab, it comes up as a internet archive capture, which leads me to believe the URL is not the most up to date. After a quick google search I found https://www.spinalcord.org/ and https://askus-resource-center.unitedspinal.org/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=249 which appear to be the more recent versions of this source. It is unfortunate that they don't seem to have all the resources/products/services a state offered in one place and that it takes a little digging to find everything available in your state.

"July 26 marks the 19th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act.... the ADA's provisions include the right to seek, obtain, pursue and maintain employment without being hampered by physical or attitudinal barriers. I believe that having a job is a civil right. Those who are qualified for and want to work should not be denied that right because of an inaccessible building or an outdated set of assumptions about what they can or cannot do..."
