The ADA: Your Floor – Not Your Finish Line

July 30, 2026
11:00 am-Noon CST

When President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) into law on July 26, 1990, it marked a turning point in civil rights and workplace access. The ADA established a critical legal foundation for disability inclusion in the workplace. 

But more than three decades later, compliance alone isn’t enough to unlock workforce performance.  

For many organizations, the ADA has become a checklist to complete rather than a catalyst for performance improvement. 

In this webinar, we’ll reframe the ADA as what it was always meant to be: the floor. A baseline. A starting point. 

From there, we explore what happens when disability inclusion becomes strategic — aligned with talent acquisition, retention, innovation, and culture. 

Through real-world business examples, workplace scenarios, and practical frameworks, you’ll learn how to: 

  • Move from reactive compliance to proactive strategy 
  • Identify gaps between accessibility and true inclusion 
  • Strengthen workforce engagement and performance 
  • Build scalable systems that support long-term impact 

If you’re ready to shift from meeting requirements to driving measurable progress, this session will provide you with the clarity and next steps to move forward. 

Disability inclusion isn’t just compliance. It’s a competitive advantage.
