The A11Y Project update: May 20th, 2022

The A11Y Project

What's new

On Thursday May 19th we celebrated Global Accessibility Awareness Day (#GAAD), an event "to get everyone talking, thinking and learning about digital access and inclusion, and the more than One Billion people with disabilities/impairments."

We have updated the main navigation on our site to more prominently showcase our Spotlight feature, to help highlight people doing great work in the digital accessibility space.
