Reflections: A Fireside Chat with the Honorable Anthony “Tony” Coelho

Join Disability Resource Network for an evening with former United States Representative and the primary author and sponsor of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Tony Coelho, as we celebrate Disability Pride Month and embark on the 35th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)! Tony Coelho is a fierce disability advocate that has made a lasting impact in history and has a disability himself. We look forward to an engaging conversation as we reflect on the history and creation of the ADA.

Our fundraiser is an opportunity to unite partners, members of the community, business leaders, and advocates to support this cause. Disability Resource Network serves 13 counties in North Alabama, and we remain committed to increasing our visibility and accessibility to ensure we can support our consumers. With your help, we can make a prominent and lasting impact on countless lives.

Through your support, we can amplify our efforts to: 
 

• Continue serving the community and promoting independent living among people with all disabilities.

• Create education opportunities and provide scholarships for individuals with disabilities in our service area. 

• Raise awareness and foster inclusive and accessible communities. 

• Build peer relationships.​
