(248) 295-2414 Voice/TTY/FaxSusan Fitzmaurice's idea to start this came out of her lifelong commitment to disability advocacy. The site is being created in a small home office in suburban Detroit. In less than three days it went from an idea and desire to do something, to a nationally recognized clearinghouse for information helping people with disabilities cope with the aftermath of hurricane Katrina.
Susan is also the ADA Coordinator for the City of Dearborn and the liaison to the city's Commission on Disability Concerns. She is the ADA Coordinator for the Detroit Wayne County Center for Independent Living and the founder of their disability film festival 'Reel Life'. She has also recently started a new business called ADAccess, which is specifically designed to help small businesses comply with the ADA. She is also Teddy's Mom. Susan's Email
