Accessibility Surveys for Existing Facilities:


TILC's trained accessibility staff conducts comprehensive evaluations of existing facilities to determine whether the building adheres to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) regulations. Suggestions for improvement are provided based on ADAAG and Access Board guidelines. Technical assistance in rehabbing existing facilities is available. 

 

Accessibility Surveys for New Construction:


Guidelines are available for new construction to plan for various needs that people with disabilities might have. New construction guidelines are available for single family housing, multi-family housing, medical offices, public facilities, recreational facilities, and small businesses. Suggestions for accessibility are provided based on ADAAG and Access Board guidelines. Technical assistance for rehabilitation facilities are available.
