The Mayor's Office for People with Disabilities (MOPD) was created in 1993 by City of Houston Code of Ordinance Chapter 2, Section 2-390. The primary mission of this office is to make Houston the most accessible city in the nation by working to remove physical and attitudinal barriers at all levels of City government and throughout the greater Houston community.
