Join us in April for another edition of A11yTalks. Jill Wolters, Web Standards Program Manager will present Making a COVID Site Accessible: From Tweet to Action.
This is a digital accessibility success story that started on Twitter where a screen reader user reported a content barrier on a COVID-19 website. The accessibility process to remove the barrier illustrates the need for important conversations, a good faith effort, and a roadmap for continuous improvement. Based on the blog article "A Little Bird Told Me".
