Digital Document Accessibility
Working Towards Equal Access to Information
Garver understands compliance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act, Subpart H of Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and other accessibility requirements is complex.
Our team supports clients in creating, auditing, and remediating digital content so more people can access online project information independently. Garver uses a mix of automated tools and manual checks to test digital content against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) and other standards.
Garver is committed to creating information and communication technology (ICT) that is more accessible to people with disabilities, working toward equal access to information. Our team regularly updates training to stay current with best practices on accessibility standards.

Accessibility Audits
Garver can review digital content and identify barriers for people with disabilities through a mix of automated tools and manual checks. Audits include reports and recommendations so clients can decide a path forward to improve accessibility.
Remediation Services
Garver can modify a document so digital content is more accessible. This can mean adjusting code, structure, and formatting to better support the use of assistive technologies and work towards equal access to information.
