There are two different guidelines often used when determining
whether a site is "accessible": the US Government Section 508 Guidelines
and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
The accessibility movement encourages web sites to be built to
allow people with disabilities to view them. For example, one accessibility
standard is that all images have "alternate text" and "long descriptions"
coded into the HTML. This would be useful for software that reads
web pages out loud for blind people. Even if they cannot see your
images, the software can read the description of the image out loud.
This website is being constructed to meet as many of those standards as
possible. When complete it meets all the Priority 1 standards of the Web
Content Accessibility Guidelines and all of the Section 508
Guidelines.
Should you have or note any accessibility problems with this site - please notify the CASE webmasters.
