The Administration for Community Living and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights honors 35 years of progress since the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. This event will bring together individuals with disabilities, families, advocates, and leaders in a shared commitment to the inherent dignity and worth of every person.

This gathering is about more than commemorating a historic law—it’s about honoring the people and stories that give the ADA life and meaning. Together, we’ll reflect on how far we’ve come, hear powerful personal stories that illustrate the impact of that progress, and reinforce our shared responsibility to shape an even better future for all people with disabilities by renewing our commitment to greater inclusion.

  • Remarks from the Secretary of Health and Human Services
  • Reflections from individuals with disabilities and their families on the impact of the ADA
  • Perspectives on the ADA's implementation and future from federal partners, including the Office for Civil Rights and the National Council on Disability
