To meet our legal obligations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), we aim to conform our Site to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA standards. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with visual, hearing, cognitive, and motor disabilities.
