ACCESSIBILITY POLICY
Thank you for visiting the Project Here Online Toolkit website. Project Here appreciates that many visitors are concerned about accessibility to technology and Project Here is committed to achieving meaningful accessibility to its online environment. This website has been designed to offer easy and efficient access to Project Here resources and services. In addition, reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate all users who utilize standards compliant web browsers, as well as enabling software or assistive technology.
Standards for Compliance
Extensive effort is made to adhere to the Federal Section 508 Standards requirements set forth in the Rehabilitation Act that was amended in 1998. These standards were created to help eliminate barriers in information technology, make new opportunities available for people with disabilities and encourage the development of technologies that help achieve these goals. For more information about these standards please visit the Section 508 website (www.hhs.gov/web/508) or the Federal Access Board website (www.access-board.gov).
In addition, this website also strives to comply with the Massachusetts Web Accessibility Standards. These standards, adopted in May of 2000, were developed by the Massachusetts Information Technology Division (ITD) to ensure that all Massachusetts Agency web pages are accessible for all users. These standards are based primarily on Federal Section 508 Standards with some elements from the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and have been actively incorporated throughout this website.
