Accessibility

The Rhode Island Commerce Corporation is cognizant that many disabilities can affect access to information technologies. Additionally, the same individuals who run into barriers that impede access to information technologies could benefit most from using them.

Given the importance of the internet, accessibility to the web is of critical importance to people with disabilities around the world, including people with auditory, cognitive, physical, neurological, and visual disabilities. It is likewise important to those with accessibility needs due to aging.

Providing accessible web content can also benefit people who do not have disabilities but who are experiencing situational barriers. For example, when accessing the internet from devices with small screens or in low bandwidth situations, or when experiencing barriers due to language or literacy levels, accessibility solutions can also support improved access.

The Rhode Island Commerce Corporation is committed to ensuring equal access for people with disabilities. The Rhode Island Commerce Corporation will endeavor to maximize the access of people with disabilities to this website.

Web content produced the Rhode Island Commerce Corporation is intended to meet Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 and 2.1, Levels A and AA. The WCAG are developed by the World Wide Web Consortium and are used to ensure that digital content is accessible to everyone.

It is the Rhode Island Commerce Corporation’s goal to create an inclusive design. Please be aware that our efforts are ongoing.
