What this site is
ADAmatters.com is a public, document based record of my experience trying to get access, communication, and a fair process from several public institutions. ADA matters because people matter.
The name refers to the Americans with Disabilities Act, the federal law that requires access for people with disabilities. This site is about what happened when I asked for that access and for basic problem solving, and was met with delay, silence, shifting positions, or escalation instead.
What this site is not
This is not a revenge project and it is not a rant. It is not legal advice. It is my account, based on the documents available to me. Where I describe an institution’s conduct, I tie it to a dated record and let the document speak.
How to read this site
- Each institution has its own section: the State Bar of Georgia, the City of Brookhaven, the Brookhaven Police Department, the Georgia Interlocal Risk Management Agency, and Gallagher Bassett.
- The Evidence Index holds the source documents. Each document has its own page explaining what it is and why it matters.
- The Timeline lays the events out in order.
- The Glossary defines every institution, acronym, and term in plain English.
The central message
I did not seek conflict. I repeatedly tried to resolve issues informally. I asked for communication, process clarity, and reasonable access. When the process failed, documentation became survival. This site exists so the record is organized, searchable, and understandable.
This site is for documentation, public education, and personal commentary. It is not legal advice.
