Accessibility Statement

The California School for the Blind (CSB) is committed to making its electronic and information technologies accessible to individuals with disabilities by meeting or exceeding the requirements of Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. § 794, (Section 504) and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. § 12131, (Title II). These federal laws prohibit discrimination based on a disability and requires agencies to provide individuals with disabilities equal access to electronic information and data comparable to those who do not have disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency. In addition, CSB follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 as a benchmark for accessibility. WCAG 2.0 is known as the industry standard and it provides specific guidelines for web accessibility.

The CSB provides materials in alternative formats and provides disability related reasonable accommodations when requested. If you need materials in an alternative format or if you need reasonable accommodations to access other CSB services, contact a CSB Administrator. To help us respond in a manner most helpful to you, please indicate the nature of the accessibility problem, the web address of the requested material, your preferred format in which you want to receive the materials (electronic format, Braille, standard print, large print, etc.), and your contact information.
