Move ahead on compliance with confidence

For non-profits and public institutions, the obligations of accessibility take on exceptional importance. In many countries, including the US, Canada, members of the EU, and the UK, organizations are not excused from accessibility requirements, even if they are not-for-profit or tax-exempt.

Because of the nature of your service and place in the community, non-profits are often held to a higher standard by donors or the general public. If those giving contributions have a personal interest in accessibility, they will want to be certain that everyone is able to benefit from your programs and offerings. There can be legal obligations as well, depending on your situation. For example, in the US, organizations and agencies receiving federal funding must comply with accessibility guidelines mandated in Section 508, which includes digital interactions. Publicly funded charities in the EU, or those providing services for people with disabilities are included in the latest European Accessibility Act regulations as well. You can check specific laws and guidelines on our page listing laws by country.
