July 26, 2010 marked the 20th Anniversary of the Americans with
Disabilities Act. In celebration of this occasion, the ADA Wisconsin
Partnership, through funding provided by the DBTAC Great Lakes ADA
Center, was please to release a video "We Came Together: Wisconsin
Reflects on 20 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act".

Tammy Liddicoat , Executive Director of Employment Resources Inc.
indicated that the video was inspired by the idea that it took ALL
disability groups coming together with a united message, to ensure the
passage of the ADA.
Ms. Liddicoat said that "The video features overlapping clips
from interviews with several disability advocates who, alongside
hundreds of others in Wisconsin, played a part to advance civil rights
for people with disabilities, promote the passage of the ADA and ensure
ongoing awareness of ADA implementation".
