THE UNIVERSAL DESIGN COALITION (UDC) advocates Universal Design concepts and use in the SunCoast area and beyond.
At present, our primary focus has been to develop presentations, which are part of communication and education programs centered on identifying Universal Design initiatives that help to implement new Living Environment practices.
THE UNIVERSAL DESIGN COALITION meets on a monthly basis at the Center for Arts and Humanity in Sarasota. We welcome new attendees to join us in learning more about Universal Design. Please feel free to contact us, should you wish to participate in one of our sessions.
