Get a QuoteWhat is Section 508?
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act requires federal agencies to make their electronic and information technology (EIT) accessible to people with disabilities.
When federal agencies develop, procure, maintain, or use EIT, they must ensure that it is accessible to employees and members of the public with disabilities.
This includes websites, documents, software, and multimedia content — in all languages.
