Accessibility overlays might seem like an easy fix, but they often create more problems than they solve. If you or your company uses an accessibility overlay on your website, it’s worth taking a closer look. Do they really make your site accessible or just make it look that way? We know overlays can interfere with assistive tech, give a false sense of compliance, and even create legal risks. That’s not exactly a solid accessibility strategy. Instead of quick fixes, let’s talk about real solutions. Learn more about overlays: https://lnkd.in/eKhJRmCc #Accessibility #InclusiveDesign #DigitalAccessibility #WebDevelopment

Women’s History Month is a time to celebrate the women whose courage, advocacy, and leadership have shaped history. As a company committed to accessibility, we must talk about Judith Heumann, a fierce disability rights activist whose work led to lasting change, from the 504 sit-in to the Americans with Disabilities Act. Her legacy is a call to action. Nearly 50 years after she fought to have Section 504 enforced, we must continue the fight for disability rights and inclusion. Learn more about her impact and join us in continuing the fight for disability rights!! #WomensHistoryMonth #JudithHeumann #Section504 #ADA #DisabilityRights

Section 504 is under attack ?? For 50 years, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act has protected disabled people from discrimination and ensured access to education, employment, healthcare, and public services. Now, the Texas v. Becerra case threatens to weaken or even dismantle these protections, putting millions at risk. If successful, it could mean: ?? Fewer accommodations in schools ?? Barriers to employment for workers with disabilities ?? Limited access to critical healthcare services This isn’t just a legal battle—it’s a fight for basic human rights. Understand what’s at stake and how you can take action: https://lnkd.in/eKYjwDut #DisabilityRights #Protect504 #Accessibility #Section504

Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act is under attack. Joined by the former head of HHS' Administration for Community Living Alison Barkoff, this episode dives into the legal battle, it's potential impact, and the action we need to take. Listen wherever you get your podcasts: https://lnkd.in/d5HVcD7V
Lately I've have been feeling pretty helpless around the amount of information and change coming at us and none of it is good. But! Thankfully I'm on a platform that can amplify important information, advocacy, and change. I’ve been working on a podcast episode titled, Protect 504 with my co-host Kristen Witucki, unpacking the current Section 504 legal battle and what we can do to stop this important update from being overturned. I wanted to share it with you in case you haven’t had a chance to dive into what’s happening. We spoke with Alison Barkoff, who played a key role in the 2024 update—including major digital accessibility advancements. It’s such a critical moment for disability rights, and the more people who understand these changes, the better. If you find it helpful, I’d love for you to share it with others in your network who might benefit from it! Link to episode (it’s also available by searching Article 19 on all podcast platforms): https://lnkd.in/eAchNENv Huge Thanks to Markus Goldman Martin Molloy, MPA, CPACC Steve Levine and Sydney Bromfield for getting this off the ground. #Section504 #TexasvBecerra #DisabilityRights

Think writing accessible image descriptions is easy, or that AI has you covered? Think again! Alt text is more than a simple description—it’s a key to making your content accessible to all users. Writing clear, effective alt text isn’t always as simple as it seems. Do you know: ? How much should you write? ? What is meaningful versus decorative? ? How do I explain a bar chart or line graph? Join me on Thursday, February 20th for Writing Effective Alt Text, a hands-on training that will teach you:? ?? When to write alt text (and when to skip it!) ?? How to craft concise, meaningful descriptions ?? Common mistakes that make alt text less useful ?? Best practices for accessibility and SEO If you’re unsure whether your alt text is helping or hindering your audience, this session is for you. Let me help you make your image-based content more inclusive—one description at a time. Register for this interactive session now: https://lnkd.in/gyJrgTUm #A11y #Accessibility #AltText #InclusiveDesign #WCAG #ADA #Illustrator #Photoshop

????♀??? Emojis are everywhere—but are they accessible? If you saw these emojis, you likely interpreted them differently than their official alt text. That’s because emojis take on new meanings in different contexts, cultures, and communities. But how does that impact accessibility? In this episode of Article 19, we chat with accessibility engineer Damien E. LaRock, Ph.D. to explore the accessibility of emojis. Listen now: https://lnkd.in/evESd8Bh

? Accessibility isn’t just a compliance checkbox. ?? It’s a massive, missed business opportunity. The "silver tsunami" is coming. Aging consumers have billions in spending power. Yet many companies?overlook accessibility, leaving money on the table. It’s time to rethink the conversation.?Are we ready? #BusinessOpportunity #Accessibility
