    What do you most want to know about?

    What is the biggest disability concern you have?

    What barriers are you facing as a disabled association pro?

    When's the last time you reviewed your accommodation policy?

    I was there when Cricket Park, then an association exec (and now an Episcopal priest) explained the ADA and its meaning to the meetings/hospitality industry at an EIC (then CIC) board meeting after the ADA's passage.

    She wrote a book for AHEAD; a white paper for PCMA. Both now are out of print.

    I'd like a greater understanding of what are legal obligations of venues and of associations to accommodate people with disabilities.

    Are you thinking about doing a live Q&A?
