Hi everyone: The June meeting topic is "Accessibility", being discussed by NetSquared groups around the world.
The "Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act" (AODA) law governing accessibility has been in place since 2002, and required that all government websites be accessible by 2003, and that all "public establishments" be accessible by 2025. How do our nonprofits' websites measure up?
We'll be joined by Nina, not a SysAdmin but an expert on AODA. We'll have our usual round table discussion, and we can explore some of our own websites with a few really simple tests to see how accessible they are.
This month we're meeting in The Chapel of First United Church, which is a physically accessible location!
