  • The Ultimate Guide to Achieving ADA Compliance

    COVID-19 has accelerated the rate at which digital platforms are replacing face-to-face communications, shopping, and more, making it vital for your website to be accessible to people with disabilities. But achieving compliance to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is about more than avoiding lawsuits and dodging complaints—it’s about creating a barrier-free online experience for people with disabilities, as well as building a company culture around accessibility and inclusion. Today, there are one billion people worldwide who have disabilities and 61 million adults in the United States—or 26 percent of the population—living with a disability. By 2030, one in five Americans will hit retirement age with a visual impairment and likely need to use assistive technology, such as a screen reader. Achieving ADA compliance can’t be a question of “if”; it must be a question of “when.” The Ultimate Guide to Achieving ADA Compliance is for you if: You're responsible for establishing and maintaining accessibility for your business’s digital assets, such as websites, apps, PDFs, images, and videos. You have a website that uses Java, CSS, dynamic content, and/or third-party functionality. Your industry is among those most frequently targeted by web accessibility lawsuits, including retail companies and the hospitality and restaurant industry.
