Is Your Business ADA Compliant?

Businesses miss out on valuable consumer dollars each day because they are not compliant with the American with Disabilities Act.

Hillsborough County and the Alliance for Citizens with Disabilities-Hillsborough County want to help small businesses change that.

The alliance will have a free workshop to update small businesses on the legal and technical requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The workshop, "ADA Compliance For Small Businesses," is set for Thursday, June 6, 8:30 a.m.-noon.

The workshop will take place at the Children's Board offices, 1002 E. Palm Ave. in Tampa, and will feature experts helping business leaders avoid costly mistakes by reviewing the latest ADA needs and requirements. 

Session topics include:  

• Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act: A Small Business Primer

•  Where to Start and What to Look For: Practical Solutions to Technical Requirements

• Building Access and Resources: Bringing New Customers to Your Door

Business owners are asked to pre-register online. The workshop is free, and a complimentary continental breakfast will also be offered.
