The Illinois Chapter of the Changing Spaces Campaign is led by Courtney Carlson. Courtney was inspired to start advocating for accessible restrooms with universal changing tables because of her own experiences caring for her child in inadequate restroom facilities while away from home.
​
Courtney's Story:
We love to travel and my son is 7 years old. It's hard for us to leave the house due to the lack of changing tables in public places. I want to raise awareness about the need for changing tables!
​
The Illinois chapter plans to spread awareness about the need for universal changing tables to be installed in public restroom facilities so that people with disabilities and medical conditions can be fully accommodated in public places in Illinois.
​
Progress!
In June 2024, Sami's Law was enacted in Illinois. This Law is an amendment to the Equitable Restrooms Act and requires the State Capitol building and Illinois rest stops located on interstate highways to install and maintain at least one adult changing station, and provide information about the location of these changing stations.
