Access Yes Award

The UAAAC desires to recognize businesses that voluntarily comply with the access laws without a lawsuit or government involvement. It is very important for businesses to voluntarily comply with the laws. The UAAAC believes that there are many businesses that quietly comply with the laws but receive no recognition. Therefore, the UAAAC created the Access Yes Award to recognize businesses that are making a good faith effort to be accessible to all.

UAAAC MISSIONS

UNITED AFRICAN-ASIAN ABILITIES CLUB (hereinafter referred to as UAAAC, Club or Association) is an organization that advocates on the behalf of its members with different conditions when their civil rights and liberties have been violated.  ‎The Club or Association is an international group started in 2011. One of its core mission is to reduce charitable or public assistance dependence by people with mental and physical conditions by promoting business and employment opportunities. Another critical mission of the Club is to provide written testimony concerning proposed laws related to people with conditions. Further, another core mission of the Association is to provide counseling and referral housing services to minorities with sight, mental, hearing and physical conditions. Achieving this mission is frustrated by the rampant violations of the fair housing laws. In fact, the Association started its mission in 2011. It is futile for the most part. Another core mission of Association is searching for accessible businesses and giving awards to them. These businesses include apartments. As in Smith, 358 F.3d 1105, a further mission of the group is to eliminate disability discrimination. These missions are not abstract social interests of the Club.
