ADA Self Evaluation & Transition Plan

ADASedgwick County is dedicated to public programs, activities and services, which are free of discrimination based on disability. The following Self Evaluation and Transition Plan documents have been developed to establish in written policy Sedgwick County’s commitment to nondiscrimination based on disability and to comply fully with the letter and spirit of the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.

Both documents have been prepared by Sedgwick County in consultation with Disability Management Consulting Group, d.b.a, ADA Accrediting & Consulting, Sedgwick County’s ADA Coordinator, and the Sedgwick County ADA Internal Compliance Team. A preliminary draft has been reviewed by the Wichita/Sedgwick County Access Advisory Board (WSCAAB), and the WSCAAB will also review the entirety of this document and provide recommendations pertaining to its language and content.

The Self-Evaluation provides a comprehensive review of County policies and procedures, with recommendations for improving program access. The Transition Plan document contains ADA surveys of all County facilities, identifying any structural modifications necessary for the removal of barriers to program accessibility. Together, these documents are intended to provide a plan for ensuring accessibility to Sedgwick County’s programs, services, and facilities.

These documents are being provided in draft form so the public may have the opportunity to review, comment, and participate fully in the planning process. Please note that hyperlinks within the document are not active because to do so would create a file too large for public dissemination.  Public comment and feedback is encouraged. All public comments will be recorded and provided to the County’s ADA Internal Compliance Team. The County will review all comments received from the public and where appropriate or feasible modify the documents to accommodate the public recommendations.

The documents are also available in audio format through the Air Capital Telephone Reader at 316-337-7700.  The documents can be found in Publication 9, Category 24.  Users without an Air Capital Telephone Reader account may use the code 1234 to access the site.

Public forum meetings on the Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan are planned to receive public comment as follows:

If individuals are unable to attend these events, the public is welcome to provide written comments through July 9, 2008.  Please direct all Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan comments to Lindsey Mahoney, Sedgwick County ADA Coordinator.
