Standards for Compliance
Extensive effort is made to adhere to the standards set forth in Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. These standards were created to help eliminate barriers in information technology, make new opportunities available for people with disabilities and encourage the development of technologies that help achieve these goals. For more information about these standards please visit the Section 508 web site ( www.section508.gov) or the Federal Access Board web site ( www.access-board.gov).
In addition, this web site also strives to comply with the Massachusetts Web Accessibility Standards. These standards, adopted in May of 2000, were developed by the Massachusetts Information Technology Division (ITD) to ensure that all Massachusetts Agency web pages are accessible for all users. These standards are based on the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and have been actively incorporated throughout this web site.
