Accessibility Statement

We are committed to ensuring that Disability.gov is accessible to all its users. This Web site has been developed to comply with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (as amended). Section 508 was enacted to eliminate barriers to information technology, to make available new opportunities for people with disabilities and to encourage the development of new technologies to help achieve these goals. This law requires that all individuals with disabilities have access to information and data comparable to that which is available to individuals without disabilities.

Located at the top right of each page of the Web site, the "skip to page content" option allow users to quickly skip to the content or menu sections of the page. This feature may be helpful if you are using a screen magnifier or speech browser, or are viewing the site on a small screen.

Located at the top of each page on Disability.gov is a drop down menu that allows the user to switch the site from "Full Graphics" to "High Contrast" in order to more easily tell the difference between background images and text.

If you would like to use the High Contract version of the site, simply select "High Contrast" from the drop down menu at the top right of any home page and click the "SET" button to the right to the drop down menu.
