ADA Self-Evaluation involves a comprehensive assessment of public agencies’ facilities, programs, and services to identify barriers to accessibility. This process entails examining physical infrastructure, communication systems, policies, and practices to ensure compliance with ADA regulations. The findings of the Self-Evaluation inform the development of a Transition Plan — a strategic roadmap and ‘Living Document’ for addressing accessibility barriers and achieving ADA compliance over time.

Investing in an ADA Transition Plan is a critical step for organizations and municipalities who want to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and improve accessibility for individuals with disabilities in their community. Not only is it legally required, but it can also have long-lasting positive impacts on quality of life for many people.
