Regional Sales Director @ PayIt | Public Sector SaaS & ERP Expert | Payments Modernization | Digital Government Innovator | Enhancing Resident Experience
To serve all constituents equitably as more services go online, governments must prioritize digital accessibility. One way to achieve this, according to a brief published by the National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO), is by establishing a formal accessibility-focused role. This role would be devoted to improving access to state programs and services, assessing usability and implementing improvements for digital products and services, auditing state websites and other digital platforms for accessibility, offering accessibility training to state employees, and advocating for the use of accessibility best practices across state agencies. We love to see this kind of progress happening across state governments, as it directly impacts the resident experience and ultimately makes the transition to digital more effective.

Nice! Check out all these digital accessibility guides, examples, and resources from Digital Services Coalition member companies!
In December 2023, the GSA and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) released M-24-08, “Strengthening Digital Accessibility and the Management of Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.” The memo encouraged efforts to build a positive culture around digital accessibility, and provided clear and immediate government-wide actions. We are pleased to see the government’s response, including a recommendation to “explore options to proactively enforce Section 508 compliance.” Learn more about our key takeaways and the work DSC member organizations are doing to improve accessibility. >> https://lnkd.in/e-VcH6KU #accessibility #digitalservices #section508 Ad Hoc LLC Bixal Bloom Works Public Benefit LLC CivicActions Coforma Exygy Fearless Truss

With over two billion monthly visits to federal websites, we can say with near certainty that digital platforms now serve as the primary touchpoints between the government and its citizens. As the government works to improve the way they offer digital services, it's imperative that they "reframe digital accessibility as a strategic imperative not just to tick compliance checkboxes but to build a more equitable digital society." How does your organization plan to support both its own digital accessibility and that of the government? Great, provocative thought leadership from Ran Ronen at Federal Times https://lnkd.in/erwjCYp7
