In 2002, the county identified and projected the growing population of older adults and BSRI was established. With the ever-evolving needs of people over 50, BSRI has adapted by offering active lifestyle activities, while continuing to provide resources and support to help navigate the aging process.

BSRI receives funding from federal, state, and local entities, as well as philanthropic donations. Additionally, BSRI operates businesses that provide supportive revenue to expand programs beyond existing resource allocations.

In this episode of "Built in Brunswick," we have the privilege of speaking with Tony Caggiano, known far and wide as The ADA Comply Guy. Tony's journey is one of remarkable dedication to accessibility and inclusivity, driven by his deep-rooted philanthropic spirit.

Join us in this conversation as Tony shares his inspiring journey. From volunteering with special needs groups like the Special Olympics to his background in the IT industry, Tony's path took an unexpected turn in 2019. What began as a project to create a mobile app for local school fundraising led to a profound discovery – the urgent need for website accessibility. Tony became an advocate for ADA compliance, educating businesses on its importance and helping them navigate new regulations to avoid legal challenges.

Tony's mission goes beyond compliance; he's now an advocate for both the disabled community and unaware business owners. His work not only empowers businesses to become compliant but also helps them access government funding and grants through the Web Accessibility Awareness Foundation (WAAF). Tune in to learn how Tony Caggiano is making the digital world more inclusive for everyone.
