Digital Accessibility: Small Changes, Big Impact
Accessibility ensures everyone — students, instructors, staff, and faculty — can access information without barriers. It’s not extra work; it’s inclusive design that benefits all.
- 1 in 4 U.S. adults lives with a disability
- 96% of websites have accessibility issues
- 10% - 35% of U.S. populations is experiencing Covid brain
- Most barriers are simple to fix
Why It Matters: Design with equity. Deliver with empathy
Taking small steps — alt text, captions, headings, contrast — remove barriers and create better experiences for everyone

In Short
Accessibility says: You belong. You are included. You can access this.
Small changes. Big impact. Better experiences for all.
