As soon as we learned of a potential threat to our practice, CLCID launched an "Emergency Alert" to all Certified Interior Designers to attend The Division of the State Architect (DSA) "Certified Access Specialist Program" (CASp) Workshops in Del Mar and Sacramento. Our strength in numbers at those workshops made a substantial impact on the DSA as we described the interior designers role in accessibility issues.
