Assessments for ADA Compliance
Serving people with diverse needs starts with knowing exactly where your facilities and services stand today. Our assessments identify barriers, document findings, and turn them into a clear path forward.
Serving People With Diverse Needs
A Clear Picture of Where You Stand
Organizations that provide accessible facilities and inclusive services to individuals with disabilities show they value the fastest-growing minority population in the world. Life Quest will thoroughly assess the following (and more) for compliance, based on the 1991 and/or 2010 Standards, depending on the built and remodeled years:

Our Methodology
A Proprietary, Pictorial Process
Dr. Nanette Odell, of Life Quest Training & Consulting, LLC, has developed a proprietary method for conducting an ADA Self-Evaluation Report (SER). With it, detailed pictorial and video data is collected that seamlessly converts into a Transition Plan Spreadsheet in a timely and effective manner.
The DOJ does not set a specific time frame for completion of Transition Plan modifications but they do expect that progress is consistent. This is one of the reasons why Life Quest developed the 5-point rating system. While some items may require a good deal of planning, funding allocation then construction, there are often also many items that can be completed without a great deal of time, effort or cost.
