Accessibility Policy
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is committed to providing access to all
individuals--disabled or not--who are seeking information on its Web site. To
provide this information, the NCI Web site has been designed to comply with
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (as amended).
Section 508 requires that all individuals with disabilities (whether they are
federal government employees or members of the general public) have access to
and use of information and data comparable to that provided to individuals
without disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed.
Any individual using assistive technology (such as a screen reader, Braille
reader, etc.) who experiences difficulty in accessing information on
www.cancer.gov, should send an e-mail to
Contact Us (cancergovstaff@mail.nih.gov) or
call NCI's Office of Communications at 301-496-9096
for assistance. The nature of the accessibility problem and contact information
should be included in any e-mail or telephone message. If the accessibility
problem involves a particular Web page, including the URL (Web address) of the
page would be helpful. A member of the NCI Web site staff will contact
individuals with accessibility problems as soon as possible to assist them and
to provide them the information sought.
