To help ensure that all Town programs and services are accessible to residents and visitors with disabilities, the Town of Concord has retained KMA, LLC to conduct an accessibility assessment and develop a strategic accessibility plan.

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), a person with a disability is defined as as a person who has a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities, a person who has a history or record of such an impairment, or a person who is perceived by others as having such an impairment. Some examples of disabilities include, cancer, diabetes, post-traumatic stress disorder, HIV, autism, cerebral palsy, deafness or hearing loss, blindness or low vision, epilepsy, mobility disabilities such as those requiring the use of a wheelchair, walker, or cane, intellectual disabilities, major depressive disorder, and traumatic brain injury.

Public input is an essential part of this effort. We would like to hear your ideas, experiences, and concerns regarding the accessibility of Town programs, services, and facilities. Please take a few minutes to respond to the six questions in the ADA Survey.

Hard copies of the survey are available at the Town Clerks Office, Hunt Gym, Beede Recreation Center, Council on Aging, and the Concord Free Public Library branches.
