Washington, D.C. – In recognition of the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, U.S. Senator Mike Enzi (R-Wyo.), Ranking Member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP) Committee, today has published an updated version of his Accessibility Manual - a comprehensive guide to providing Senate offices and constituents with valuable information on accessibility throughout the U.S. Capitol Complex.

Dental care for disabled takes step forward

By Rick Wills, PITTSBURGH TRIBUNE-REVIEW
Saturday, July 31, 2010

 For many people, a visit to the dentist is one of the year's most dreaded events.

But for people with developmental and intellectual disabilities, a dentist's chair is often so overwhelming that they can't be treated at all -- even if a dentist is willing to treat them, said Karen Noah, director of Accessible Dental Services, a Marshall nonprofit set up four years ago by Passavant Memorial Homes.

Accessible Dental thinks its new mobile dental unit -- a RV equipped with two dental chairs -- is a good step toward improving dental care for the disabled.

The mobile unit, paid for with grants from the Highmark and FISA foundations, was introduced Friday and will be hosting clinics throughout Western Pennsylvania by the end of this year. Accessible Dental works with 48 agencies and 130 families.

Written by Madonna Long   

President Obama announced the signing of an Executive Order that will make the government a model employer for people with disabilities. He also announced the release of two new rules on the ADA that had not been updated since 1991, explaining that the rules will cover “more than 80,000 state and local government entities, and 7 million private businesses.” The President’s message about this law and our movement resonated with the audience, closing by stating, “That’s what we did with the ADA. That is what we do today. And that’s what we’re going to do tomorrow -- together.”
