Accessibility Statement

It is the goal of Disability Rights Arkansas to ensure that all of its web resources are fully accessible to our website visitors. 

As this website is an ongoing project, we will continue to evaluate and improve the website to ensure it complies with the best practices and standards defined by Section 508 of the U.S. Rehabilitation Act, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines of the World Wide Web Consortium and/or which are brought to our attention by users.

We utilise an accessibility interface called accessiBe that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design to their personal needs.

accessiBe is a technology solution that can transform a website into a fully compliant and easily navigable page, allowing you to adjust and optimize certain features according to a person’s specific needs.

How to use the accesswidget by accessiBe

From DRA’s website, you can access the accessibility tools by clicking on the blue icon with the universal symbol for a person, which is located at the bottom left corner of every page. You can adjust settings such as contrast and font size, or choose from one of the preset options:  ​​​​​​​

• Seizure Safe
• Vision Impaired
• Cognitive Disability
• ADHD Friendly
• Blind Users
• Keyboard Navigation (Motor)

If you want to return to the original form of the website, just click the Reset Settings button to clear your changes. Also, accesswidget only works when activated, so if you don’t want or need to use these features, then nothing will change.

If you have visual, auditory, motor or cognitive impairments, the accessiBe tools can help you have a better website experience tailored to your needs. The interface can make changes to the website design, such as fonts, colors and animations, and it is powered by AI technology to improve the experience with a screen reader or keyboard navigation.
