  • Model Universal Design Incentive Local Ordinance Adopted March 3, 2010
    Suffolk County Planning Commission Model Universal Design Incentive Local Ordinance Adopted March 3, 2010 I. Purpose and Legislative Intent [To be provided by adopting local government] May include the following language: The (Adopting local government) has determined that the availability of accessible housing opportunities is vital to the safety and welfare of persons with limited mobility including seniors and persons with either permanent or temporary disabilities. The amendment of (Chapter/Code/Section/Article) provides for a Universal Design Incentive (UDI) permit fee structure and other benefits that reduce the cost and time needed to create Accessible and Adaptable housing. An increase in the inventory of such single and multi-family dwellings is needed to meet the needs of a growing number of residents and visitors with disabilities and for those who wish to retire in their own homes as is commonly referred to as the ability to "age-in-place". The (adopting local government) determines to provide UDI regulation to stimulate the development of adaptable and accessible housing by offering permits for both new dwellings and for alterations to existing dwellings under an incentive based fee structure with expedited application processing. The UDI also provides for the exemption from certain dimensional (setback) requirements for alterations to existing dwellings that are necessary to create an Accessible Entryway. Further, the UDI provides for an exemption from maximum floor area and lot coverage calculations for new and substantially altered single family dwellings. The UDI code amendment is intended to encourage and expedite the development of additional local housing opportunities for independent living. (name of adopting local government) seeks to facilitate the alteration of existing homes and the construction of new single and multi-family dwellings that are accessible or may be readily made accessible for seniors and other persons with limited mobility such as persons with disabilities.

  • Redesigning Where We Learn INTRO Adapting to a New Way of Learning
    HOW FLOORING PLAYS A ROLE IN SCHOOL HEALTH + SAFETY redesigning where we learn INTRO adapting to a new way of learning As school districts pivot from virtual to in-class learning, teachers and administration are faced with a daunting task: to effectively educate students and keep them safe at the same time. Interiors must be reimagined to make sure each space is as conducive to learning and safety as possible. Flooring can play a role in effective school strategies. For this to happen, at least three measures must be taken into account: 1. Manage social distancing and circulation 2. Minimize airborne transmission 3. Infection prevention and sanitation This guide has been developed to help you determine how careful selection and maintenance of flooring can be leveraged for safer schools. Shown at left: Z-factor Dimension, KINETEX KINETEX Propel Shoot, 1 MANAGE SOCIAL DISTANCING AND CIRCULATION manage social distancing and circulation DESIGNING SAFE SPACES Most children struggle with understanding scale. The right flooring can help provide visual cues to denote six-foot boundaries and circulation patterns. Various formats, colors, and patterns can be combined in unique ways to help encourage social distancing among students in a way they can better understand. For your inspiration, we’ve provided some floor plan and installation ideas that can contribute to safer schools.

  • A Gender Non-Specific Bathroom Does Not Specify a Gender in Any Way, Or Clearly Lists Both of the Leading Genders
    Harvard University Bathroom Study What is a gender non-specific bathroom? A gender non-specific bathroom does not specify a gender in any way, or clearly lists both of the leading genders. The project serves to identify the location of bathrooms that are gender non- specific and to gather data about certain areas of the undergraduate campus that are lacking gender non-specific bathrooms. Why gender non-specific bathrooms are important! Everyone has the right to use the bathroom without fear! Besides reinforcing gender norms, bathrooms that are clearly marked as male/female force many individuals to enter bathroom environments that they consider uncomfortable and unsafe. People face discrimination daily for entering marked bathrooms containing other individuals who perceive their gender to be variant from the social norm. Increasing awareness and identifying the locations of gender-safe bathrooms will prevent people from being threatened by violence and harassment. Abbreviations: M- Marked. GNS- Gender non-specific. MS- Multiple Stall. SS- Single Stall GNS (Gender Non-Specific) - a bathroom that does not specify a gender in any way, or clearly lists both of the leading genders. M (Marked) - a bathroom that specifies a particular gender SS (Single Stall) - One person can use at a time. If SS is not specified, that means the bathroom is a multi-stalled bathroom.

  • Harvard Law School Class of 2019
    HARVARD LAW SCHOOL CLASS OF 2019 CLINICAL AND PRO BONO PROGRAMS LEARNING THE LAW | SERVING THE WORLD COMMENCEMENT NEWSLETTER “The Harvard Law School Clinical and Pro Bono Programs provide an exceptional educational experience for our students and superb legal representation to countless people. Our clinicians and our students work together to solve hard problems, to illuminate complex issues of profound social and legal import, and to serve communities and individuals by providing top flight lawyering. In the process, our students acquire from outstanding teachers and role models, excellent experience in practice and procedure, an impressive knowledge of the law in a vast number of areas, a deep understanding of professionalism, and the art of team work. Our students bring to their work a commitment to public service that we hope they take with them throughout their careers. For the J.D. Class of 2019, eighty-six percent of the class will have taken a clinic, and forty-eight percent will have taken two or more. I am very proud of the faculty and staff who lead and support our clinics, of the work our clinics and student practice organizations do, and of the great lawyers they help launch into the world.” John Manning Morgan and Helen Chu Dean Harvard Law School “One of the best aspects of Harvard Law School is working with the remarkable energy, creativity, and dynamism of our students. They come to HLS with a wide range of backgrounds and a wealth of experiences from which our Clinics and our clients benefit and grow. Our Clinical Program is never static—we are constantly reinventing ourselves in response to client needs, student interests, and national and international issues.
