Universal Changing Table Lending Program
The Delaware County Board of Developmental Disabilities is proud to introduce the Universal Changing Table Lending Program. This initiative aims to provide greater accessibility and support for individuals with disabilities who require a clean, safe, and dignified space for personal care while in public spaces.
Why is this program important?
Having access to universal changing tables helps make public spaces accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities, the elderly, and those with complex medical needs.
How does the Universal Changing Table Lending Program work?
Our program offers a portable universal changing table for temporary use at public events, gatherings, and venues. These tables can be reserved and borrowed at no cost to the borrower, ensuring that everyone has access to a safe and comfortable personal care space. The table is easy to use and can be placed in any appropriate location within a venue or event space (inside a family restroom or a private room with a door that locks).
Benefits for the Community
The Universal Changing Table Lending Program promotes inclusivity and accessibility by:
- Enabling individuals with disabilities to participate in community events with greater comfort and dignity.
- Empowering families and caregivers to provide necessary care without facing significant challenges.
- Raising awareness about the importance of inclusive infrastructure in public spaces.
