## About

Proactive Access is a professional consulting firm with an expertise in construction-related accessibility. Certified Access Specialists (CASp) are ADA compliance experts and California accessibility specialists. A CASp Inspector educates business owners about the accessibility requirements that are applicable to their facility. Facilities that receive a CASp Report are granted special legal protections that mitigate exposure to ADA lawsuits.

The term “CASp” is an acronym that stands for Certified Access Specialist. The CASp Program was created upon the passage of CA Senate Bill 1608 in 2008. The intention of SB 1608 was to create a resource to California business owners who were facing a growing number of “ADA Lawsuits”. As a result, the State of California began certifying experts in field of accessibility known as Certified Access Specialists (CASp). To become a CASp, individuals are rigorously tested by the Division of the State Architect to demonstrate specialized knowledge of applicability of state and federal construction relates accessibility standards.

The primary role of a CASp Inspector is to evaluate accessibility compliance at existing facilities. Upon completion of a CASp Inspection, a Certified Access Specialist generates a CASp Report that details his or her findings. This confidential report is the foundation of a business’s barrier removal strategy. As a business removed barriers over time, accessibility improves and exposure to an ADA lawsuit decreases.
