Our Mission

To eliminate barriers and create spaces where people with disabilities are expected, not excluded.

Access UpRising exists to eliminate barriers – physical, digital, and attitudinal – so that people with disabilities can move through the world without asking permission. We help communities come together to create spaces that are not only ADA-compliant, but truly inclusive. We’re on a mission to make accessibility non-negotiable. No more excuses. No more exclusion.
