ADA Accessibility
Our commitment is to provide accessible playground equipment in order to promote a positive play environment for children of all abilities. We believe play must be inclusive, and by removing barriers for all children, we provide play and learning opportunities of which we can be excited and proud.
Providing accessibility to the play space entails more than just complying with minimum accessibility requirements, standards and laws. It means providing a place where children of all abilities can experience play together.
Miracle's play equipment allows you to configure your play area to be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessibility Guidelines for Play Areas. The chart below shows how you can make any playground comply with the intent of ADA.
