Who they are
Stacey Peace is the State ADA Coordinator at the State of Georgia ADA Coordinator’s Office. The office sits at 270 Washington Street SW in Atlanta and takes ADA technical assistance requests about the programs, services and activities of Georgia entities.
She is on this page for the opposite reason to everyone else on this roster. Her office answered.
Why they are on this page
Facts only. What they did or did not do, each with a document behind it.
- On April 30, 2026 I sent her office a 64 page ADA technical assistance package. It was accepted as a program access matter.
- On May 6, 2026 the office contacted the State Bar of Georgia directly, by phone and by email, and offered model materials.
- The office confirmed there had been no prior program access complaints against the State Bar. Mine was the first.
- On the same day, the Bar designated a contact, partially granted two of six accommodations, and began sending individual written acknowledgments for the first time.
- On May 13, 2026 the office replied in writing on the full institutional copy list, not privately.
- On May 14, 2026 I sent a thank you. It was read in 19 minutes and answered in 54.
What the State Bar said about that call
This is the Bar’s own ADA Coordinator, writing the day after the conversation:
“Yesterday, I spoke to Ms. Stacey Peace, State ADA Coordinator, with the State of Georgia’s ADA Coordinator’s Office. Based on that conversation, I am analyzing our ADA notices and processes to determine whether and how they can be improved.”
John J. Shiptenko, ADA Coordinator, State Bar of Georgia, May 7, 2026
One phone call from an office with no power to order anyone to do anything, and the State Bar began reviewing its own ADA notices. I did not write that sentence. They did.

The comparison I did not have to construct
On May 1, 2026, outside counsel for an insurer and a municipal association wrote that my requests for disability access had “crossed into the realm of harassment.”
On May 13, 2026, this office answered the same disabled person, about the same kind of request, on the same institutional distribution list.
Twelve days apart. Same list. I am not going to tell you what that means.
No complaint was filed
There is no grievance against Ms. Peace and there is nothing on this page that asks anyone to look into her office. She is here because a roster of people who did not answer is a list, and a roster that also shows what answering looks like is a record.
What this page does not claim
Her office’s own materials are careful about its limits, and this page will not go further than they do. The State ADA Coordinator’s Office has not ruled that the State Bar of Georgia is a public entity under Title II. It has not decided any grievance. It has not ordered the Bar, or anyone else, to do anything. It is not an enforcement agency.
What it did was treat the matter as a recognisable ADA access question, contact the entity, offer help, and answer in writing on the record. That is all this page says, and it is enough.
