I have some friends who invite me places & I ask "is it accessible?" & they respond "IDK. You should look it up." I have other friends who invite me places & I ask "is it accessible?" & they respond "I'll check & let you know!" This makes a real difference & means a lot.

This has been hanging in front of Kathy Keith's desk for years. Kathy should know. She's been a tenacious advocate for people with disabilities and an Employment Specialist for CPI for 2 decades. It's 2019. It's simple and true. So much more work to be done!
