  • No supplies needed 

During the meeting: 

  1. Explain to Cub Scouts that some people have a physical disability.  Examples of physical disabilities are people in wheelchairs because their legs do not work. Because of a physical disability, it is difficult to get around. This is especially true if a building’s design isn’t accessible. 
  2. Take Cub Scouts on a walk around their meeting space to discuss disability accommodations. Start in the parking lot.  
  3. Ask Cub Scouts the following questions:

    • Are there specific handicap parking spots? 
    • Can you find any doors that have automatic openers? 
    • Do you think a wheelchair could get into the building? What would prevent this?  
    • Are there stairs you need to walk up to get into the building? If so, are there ramps or elevators that would help? 
    • Are the doorways wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair? 
    • What do the thresholds look like? Are they raised? Can a wheelchair roll over them easily? 
    • Are the bathroom doors wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair? Are there handicap accessible stalls that are big enough for a wheelchair? 
    • Are there other things about your meeting space that would make it difficult for someone in a wheelchair to get around?
