The Mayor's Disability Council, staffed by the Mayor's Office on Disability, was re-organized by the Mayor in October, 1998, to provide a better vehicle for public input.
About this Program
The Mission of the Mayor's Disability Council is to:
- Advise the Mayor of San Francisco on disability issues
- Work with the Mayor's Office on Disability to ensure ADA Compliance
- Provide a public forum to discuss disability issues
These meetings set the standard for public accessibility with a fully accessible site, powered door openers, accessible seating and speaker podiums, an infra-red assistive listening system, a telephone bridge for public comment from home, televised open captioning, and American Sign Language interpreters.
