The Access Board Wants to Hear from You!
Recently, the US Access Board released a set of proposed guidelines for the onboard wheelchairs that air carriers must provide to passengers who cannot use their personal wheelchairs in the cabin during flight. The guidelines are available to the public and, from now through October 21st, anyone can read them and submit their comments by email, regular mail, online through regulations.gov, or at an open meeting scheduled for September 12th.
Why is this public comment period so important? Why should people with disabilities, their families, and members of the rehabilitation community join in and add their voices? Here are a few reasons:

Your local Center for Independent Living (CIL) can also help you understand your rights, the state and federal laws that impact you and your family, and ways you can participate in advocacy in your community. Find a CIL near you!
