A Word from Our Title Sponsor – Simply Accessible

sa-logo

The world of web accessibility can be scary and overwhelming if you don’t know what you’re trying to fix or why you need to fix it. We want you to know we’ll meet you where you are, and give you the tools and support to make sense of it and form a plan. Accessibility is a journey and a destination.

If you need a fresh perspective on your design or mobile approach, or an accessibility plan for testing or building your web products & services, we’ve got you covered. We’ll work with you to build a custom plan that fits your needs and your scope. When you make things with accessibility in mind, you make the web a friendlier place, too. Explore our offerings. Let’s make a web that works for everyone.
