The City of Prescott is proud to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) July 26th, 2025. Signed into law in 1990, the ADA is a piece of civil rights legislation that prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities. It guarantees equal rights and access in areas such as employment, education, transportation, and public and private accommodations.
In recognition of this important milestone, the City of Prescott is highlighting local efforts to promote accessibility and inclusion. These efforts include the installation of Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) boards at the community splash pad, the Armory, and the Prescott Regional Airport. Additionally, the City continues to support inclusive programming through its Special Needs Activity Program (SNAP), which provides recreational opportunities tailored for individuals with special needs.
The city remains committed to fostering a welcoming and accessible environment for all residents and visitors, and to upholding the spirit and intent of the ADA in all public services and spaces.
