The 504 Democratic Club will be having a Westchester Candidate Screening on Tuesday, October 24th, from 6-9 PM, at the Licursi Insurance Company, and you are welcome to join us.

The Licursi Insurance Company is located at 15 Waverly Place, Eastchester.

The closest train from NYC is MetroNorth to the Tuckahoe station. Licursi is .64 miles from the train station.

The first Democratic club in the country focusing on disability rights, the 504 Democratic Club is a New York City-based coalition of Democrats working towards inclusion of people with disabilities in the political and social fabric of society. Club members hail from all five boroughs, reaching across every conceivable line to include a richly diverse group of people with disabilities, public officials, friends and family who support the concepts set forth in Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990.

Currently the 504 Democratic Club has around 350 members, and has celebrated its twentieth anniversary in the Fall of 2003.

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 mandates that all federally funded programs must be accessible to people with disabilities. It is the precursor of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
