508 Compliance

Section 508 compliance refers to ensuring that digital content and technology—like websites, documents, and software—are accessible to people with disabilities. This means designing and maintaining digital tools so individuals who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, or have visual, auditory, or motor impairments can effectively access and use them. The goal is to create an inclusive digital environment where everyone has equal access to information and services, regardless of physical or cognitive limitations. Compliance aligns with legal standards to promote accessibility and equal opportunity in the digital space.
