Those facilities that meet our standards for accessibility and attitude are invited to register with our Information Service. Our Service is FREE and ANONYMOUS for those who use it (i.e., Americans with disabilities). Our operating costs are funded by modest registration fees (advertising) from those barrier-free businesses and professional practices that are committed to serving their disabled customers, patients and clients.
