Making Digital Services More Accessible

508 compliance has been the minimum accessibility standard for generations. But with recent Executive Orders on disability and customer experience, agencies are now focused on achieving a broader and more effective definition of accessibility. This can include revamping websites to be more readable all the way down to making proper color choices for constituent resources.

Agencies are looking for new ways and strategies to increase accessibility both internally and for their customers.

Join us online Wednesday, Aug.16 from 2-2:45 p.m. ET/11-11:45 a.m. PT, to learn from government and industry leaders about the steps it takes to make digital services truly accessible.
