Accessible Communications
Accessible Electronic Communication
Accessible communication is now more portable and usable for everyone, not just people with disabilities. Accessible documents work better across all web browsers, computer systems, and other devices. Accessibility tools on computers and phones are equipped to provide everyone with an equal opportunity to access information from your agency, program or service. The Committee encourages widespread use of these modules by public and private entities. To learn more about using the accessibility features of a program or device that you wish to use, visit one of the listed tutorials.
