In August 2012, twenty-five people from across the country assembled for the ADA25 Summit in Atlanta, GA. Sponsored by the Amerigroup Foundation and Shepherd Center, the Summit’s purpose was to connect historical projects on the disability rights movement as well as plan for the 25th anniversary of passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in 2015. Attendees included disability rights advocates and cultural workers, disability studies scholars, historians, museum curators, documentary filmmakers, government agency representatives, and others. The Summit produced The ADA Legacy Project.
