Join us as we celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Starbucks Access Alliance (partners with disabilities and allies of access) is joining with the Alliance of People with Disabilities in paying tribute to the ADA on July 26, 2010 at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo’s North Meadow (5500 Phinney Ave N, Seattle) from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. We’ll be handing out packets of Starbucks VIA® Ready Brew while supplies last and displaying some of our products and marketing materials, such as mugs with sign language and our Braille brochure of our beverages (available for use in all of our US company-owned and licensed stores).
The tribute will include:
• Proclamation from the Governor
• Seattle City Councilmember Nick Licata and other speakers
• Comedian Al Foxx and a selection of local musicians with disabilities
• Over thirty booths with disability resources
The ADA, signed by President George W. Bush, is one of the most comprehensive civil rights laws prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability. To learn more about the ADA click here .
