Accessibility Reviews
Make your space more accessible. It just makes sense.
Creating an accessible environment isn’t just the right thing to do—it’s also smart business. Disability Advocates partners with businesses, nonprofits, architects, and developers to identify opportunities for greater access and inclusion. We help you go beyond ADA and the Michigan Construction Code compliance and move toward Universal Design—making your space easier to navigate and more welcoming for everyone.


What’s included in an Accessibility Review:
- Consultation with an Accessibility Consultant
- Site walk-through or plan review
- ADA compliance assessment
- Customized recommendations that go beyond code to reflect best practices in Universal Design
- Written report
Why Go Beyond the ADA?
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) set important standards when it was passed 35 years ago—but they’re just the baseline. Real inclusion happens when we design with everyone in mind. Universal Design improves usability for people of all abilities and can open your doors to more customers, clients, and community members.
Improved accessibility doesn’t mean extra cost—it means smarter design and broader reach.
