The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is committed to providing access to its web pages for individuals with disabilities, and is complying with the requirements of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act Amendments of 1998.

Section 508 requires that members of the public with disabilities, who seek information from CPSC's web site, have access and use that is comparable to that afforded to all site visitors, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency.

To this end, the site has been extensively modified, and is continually being fine-tuned, to afford such access. Two areas that have not been modifed as yet, due to feasibility and resource considerations, are the games in the "4 Kids" section and the large number of pages that exist as images only (in portable document format, pdf) in the Electronic Reading Room of the "Library". The agency will continue to try to find ways to make these sections accessible.

Comments on the accessibility of CPSC's web site can be sent to our webmaster.
