Mayor George Pradel
Village of Naperville
400 S. Eagle
Naperville, IL. 60566

Dear Mayor Pradel:

Thank you for your letter about Americans with disabilities. I share your concern.

We want to thank you so very much for passing the housing legistration for persons with disabilities. Naperville is the first suburb in the US to tell everyone that persons with disabilities using an appliance have rights to live a full life.

The UVDA is made because persons with disabilities are still being discriminated against and the ADA Law is just not working. Everything we have been researching for the past three months on accessibility does not show how accessibility is being corrected. This is the purpose of this web site.

There was only one person holding the highest office of the United States with a disability. He was President Roosevelt. It would never happen today because the sad thing no one wants to see us.

If we don’t make this happen and we all pull together we will be accepting crumbs. We owe our young persons with disabilities to dream that even though they have a disability they can be President of the USA. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if dreams could come true for our young ones? We have to make it happen for them.

Would you please check our web site and please can we meet with you, please. If we are going to make dreams come true can we work together as ONE.
