Many people with disabilities require assistive technology to use the Internet. Unless Internet Websites are designed to be compatible with assistive technology (e.g., screen readers for people who are blind), they may be unable to access important information or browse the Internet as others may do. New England INDEX provides trainging and technical support to Website developers about how they can develop their sites to be accessible.
