The Addition of Adult Changing Tables at LSPR

Addressing a Universal Need:

While public restrooms typically accommodate the diaper-changing needs of young children, there is growing recognition for inclusive facilities that can accommodate adults as well. Individuals who care for loved ones with disabilities often face limitations in venturing out due to concerns about accessible changing tables.

Eitass Grant Supports Inclusion:

Eitass awarded Lee's Summit Parks and Recreation (LSPR) a grant to install adult-sized changing tables at three of their community centers. These strategically placed facilities are located at Longview Community Center, Harris Park Community Center, and Lovell Community Center.

Enhancing Accessibility at LSPR:

The addition of these adult changing tables exemplifies LSPR's commitment to fostering a fully inclusive environment for all members of the community.
