What is Digital Accessibility?
Digital accessibility means that digital information and experiences can be used, understood, and participated in by all. It is achieved by using standards and best practices that center the needs of people with disabilities. It benefits everyone by making digital content easier to use and understand, more compatible with different devices, and more flexible for your needs. Learn more about accessibility basics.
