Join the Pacific ADA Center in collaboration with the California Commission on Disability Access (CCDA) for their next online Lunch and Learn webinar on Thursday, October 16, 2025 from 12 – 1 PM Pacific Time.

Emergencies such as wildfires, power outages, and extreme heat are impacting business operations throughout California. Many businesses adapt quickly to these occurrences by shifting their services, modifying operations, or temporarily transforming them into community support centers. While these pivots are often essential for continuity and community support, they might unintentionally create barriers for individuals with disabilities if accessibility is not considered in the planning process.

In collaboration with the Pacific ADA Center, the California Commission on Disability Access' final 2025 Lunch & Learn webinar will provide information to help businesses learn how to maintain operational resilience while upholding accessibility during emergencies. The event will provide an overview of emergency preparedness considerations, the role of accessibility in business continuity, and how temporary changes in business functions might impact access for customers and employees with disabilities.

Participants will receive information about relevant legal requirements, practical planning considerations, and available local, state, and federal resources. This webinar is intended for business owners, managers, and professionals that work in operations, facilities, or emergency preparedness.

Accessibility features such as ASL interpretation, captioning, and language access will be provided, with additional accommodations available upon request within 10 days of each webinar.
