Currently, students on the University of Missouri - Kansas City campus face a lot of challenges when it comes to accessibility. Often times the solutions to these challenges are there and ready to be used, but due to the current structure of the ADA Coordinator role, getting things done takes more time than necessary. 

The ADA Coordinator currently has no annual budget to spend on making the campus more accessible for all students. Whenever a problem arises, students with disabilities seem to be an after thought. The ADA Coordinator then has to request funding from the administration in order to get things done. We want to see a change in this process to allow the ADA Coordinator to expedite necessary campus improvements.
