The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a law that requires businesses and organizations to make their goods and services accessible to people with disabilities, including those with visual, auditory, motor, and cognitive impairments.

In recent years, the ADA has been interpreted to apply to websites and digital content, meaning your website should be accessible to people with disabilities, too. This includes ensuring your website is compatible with assistive technologies such as screen readers, providing text alternatives for non-text content such as images and videos, and ensuring that your website is navigable with a keyboard.

While the ADA does not explicitly mention websites, courts have ruled that websites can be considered “places of public accommodation” and, therefore, subject to the ADA. Failure to comply with the ADA can result in legal fees and damages, so it’s essential to ensure your website is accessible to everyone.

Before Encompass we had just about given up on marketing.  After analyzing all of our marketing and collateral material, organizing, polishing and aligning our marketing message to our core market we ended up saving tons of money on the marketing that did not work for us.  Thank you Encompass!

It was a very gratifying collaborative experience; the Encompass tool kit made communications and project coordination as smooth as could be. I most highly recommend this talented, value-driven resource.
