Keith Coros Community ADA Implementation Grants Program

What is the Keith Coros Community ADA Implementation Grants Program? 

Since the early 1990’s, ADA-Indiana has provided funding to local community organizations to conduct projects related to the implementation of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). One of the guiding principles behind the Grants Program is that local communities know what are the needs for their own community.

Past Grantee Organizations

Some of the organizations that have received funding from ADA-Indiana can be categorized into the following groups: Chambers of Commerce, Centers for Independent Living, Disability Advocacy Organizations, Disability Councils/Mayor’s Council on Disabilities, State Associations, State Agencies, Service Providers, and Universities.

Who is Keith Coros?

In August of 2008, ADA-Indiana re-named the Community ADA Grants program to pay tribute to the life and memory of Keith Coros. Keith was an ADA-Indiana member from 2005 until his passing in July 2008. He was involved in the Independent Living movement in Indiana, as well as doing advocacy work in his local community.
