  • ADA Day Draft
    Americans With Disabilities Act ADA DAY 7.26.21 What is ADA Day? History The ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) is a civil rights law for people with disabilities that was passed on July 26, 1990. The law prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities, assuring them of equality and equity of opportunity, full community participation, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency. In enacting the ADA, Congress recognized that physical and mental disabilities do not reduce a person’s right or ability to fully participate in all aspects of society, but that people with physical or mental disabilities are frequently excluded from doing so as a result of prejudice and inaccessibility. With the help of the ADA, 1 in 4 Americans with disabilities is able to participate in their communities and workplaces today. Every July 26th we celebrate the ADA, our fellow individuals with disabilities, and look ahead to the work that is still being done to make a more inclusive, accessible life for those with disabilities. Areas of assistance under the ADA Employment Transportation Public Accommodations President George Bush signing the ADA act on July 26, 1990 Communications and access to state and local government programs and services 01 Overview of Americans with Disabilities Act Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA): Prohibits private and government employers, employment agencies, and worker’s unions from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities. This covered all termsof employment, including applications, hiring, firing, promotion, and job training. It is enforced by the U.S Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Those who believe they have been discriminated against on the basis of their disability can file a charge to the department citing disability discrimination.

  • Spy Wednesday Be Still Day 43
    Be Still Day 43 Spy Wednesday BE STILL Take a moment to still yourself before Jesus. Take a few minutes to tell Him who He is. "Jesus you are ______________." Take another few moments to reflect on any good that has happened in the last 24 hours. Scripture tells us that every good and perfect gift comes from God (James 1:17). Thank Him for those things. What concerns are on your mind? How has the last 24 hours gone? Do you see ANY movement or change in the things you have prayed over the last week? If so, make note of it. Prayer Dear Lord, I know if Judas could have heard better, he may never have betrayed You. Give me ears to hear your voice so that I may always remain in the center of your will. Quiet the noise in my heart and mind so I can hear from you today. Guide me today as one who loves You and seeks to love like you. Amen. READ Matthew 26:14-16, John 13:18-30 FOCUS Focus Verse of the Day: John 13:26-27 – Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. 27 As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. APPLICATION & REFLECTION Wednesday of Holy Week has long been called “Spy Wednesday”. As the conspiracy against Jesus progresses, a traitor from within takes action.

  • ESTERO-BASED AMPUTEE TEAM STEPS up to BASEBALL By: Lisa M
    COVER STORY WARRIORS COVER STORY Carlo Adame, wounded warrior and US Army veteran Ryan MacIntosh catching during the MSBL World Series in Arizona (by David Van Sleet) Joshua Stevens pitches during the MSBL Las Vegas Open ESTERO-BASED AMPUTEE TEAM STEPS UP TO BASEBALL By: Lisa M. Macias & Laura J. Cummings Photos by: Lisa Macias any people look at someone without a limb as “disabled,” pitying them for what they can’t do. But 13 amputees are proving they’ve got more grit than most able-bodied athletes. The Louisville Slugger MWarriors National Amputee Baseball Team recently played in its first national tournament over Memorial Day weekend in Las Vegas. The roots of this amazing team stem from the vision of Estero resident David Van Sleet, who founded the Wounded Warriors softball team in 2011 with the motto: “Life without a limb is limitless!” The Warriors continue to prove this as the all-amputee team turns from softball to baseball. This ups the challenge tremendously: Three-hour games instead of one-hour games, nine innings rather than seven, and bases spread an additional 30 feet apart. The leap to baseball began with a request from Steve Sigler, founder and president of the Men’s Senior Baseball League/Men’s Amateur Baseball League (MSBL/MABL), the premier amateur baseball league for adults 18 years of age and older. He contacted Van Sleet about fielding an amputee baseball team to play in the 30th annual MSBL World Series, which took place near Phoenix in October 2017. The Warriors rose to the challenge but realized they would need to procure top amputee athletes if they were to become competitive in baseball.

    d174785_text_d174785_text 2/24/2017 8:09 AM Page 1 1 Letter from the President April, 2017: Since its beginning over 30 years ago, PBATS has been working toward a goal of being the most proficient group of athletic train- ers in the world. We are not driven by a sense of personal ag- grandizement or pride, but rather by an understanding of our obligation to the health of our players and our teams. In 2017, PBATS and its members are looked upon as an integral part of the fabric of the game of baseball, and just as importantly as trusted advisors to the athletes in our care. Over the years, PBATS has worked hard to share its expertise beyond the club- house and ballpark, and we are proud to have internships that reach other countries and programs that address some of the most difficult health issues right here at home. In 2016, PBATS continued to promote its newest program to the American people. This program called “Ability Transcends Challenges” or ATC, is designed to educate the American people about the role that people with disabilities have played throughout baseball’s history, while speaking to the important lessons of inclusion and the need to harness this valuable source of American manpower. Our ultimate goal is to do nothing less than change America’s perception about the value of people with disabilities, by demonstrating that truth using baseball. In 2016, the ATC program spokespeople, Jim Abbott and Curtis Pride, continued to share their messages with the American people and appeared in ATC public service announcements, advertisements, ATC program events, and the information has been seen across the United States.
