The GPMTD ADA Committee, chaired by GPMTD Board Trustee Patti Sterling Polk, is spearheading this event for the fourth year.
“It is with great enthusiasm that the GPMTD ADA Committee and staff has planned for the Annual ADA WOW! Celebration & Resource Fair. The addition of several new resources and vendors is proof that this event is growing to meet a need in the Peoria area. It is a positive and age inclusive opportunity for the local ADA community to learn about the resources available to them.”
-GPMTD Board Trustee Patti Sterling Polk
Vendors will be available to provide information on their services, products and will hand out free giveaways to attendees.
GPMTD’s transportation services – CityLink (fixed route), CityLift (paratransit) and CountyLink (rural) – will have vehicles on-site to showcase their accessibility features. Parking for event attendees will be in front of EP!C.
This event aligns with the anniversary of when the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed into law on July 26, 1990, by President George H.W. Bush.
