Accessible Community - Advancing accessibility standards
We are excited to share the Digital Accessibility Framework - a top-down look at the needs of people with disabilities within digital environments.
What needs are #accessibility guidance and research missing? How do we identify accessibility requirements for new technologies? Questions like these led to the Digital Accessibility Framework. This model of disability needs is ready for public feedback. accessiblecommunity.org/blog/advanci...

Accessible Community - Blog
Instructions for making sure the Internet Archive has saved important accessibility references
A small but impactful action: If you have #accessibility or #disability resources maintained by the U.S. Government:
1. Check to make sure it is archived in the Internet Archive AND
2. Add it to the Archive if it is not.
This blog has instructions for both.
