VA Recognizes Low Vision Awareness Month with Noteworthy Initiatives
Responding to BVA’s recent advocacy efforts and acknowledging the significance of Low Vision Awareness Month, an updated online “Accessibility at VA Outreach Toolkit” is now available through VA’s Office of Information Technology.
The toolkit, accessed here, conveys what VA is now doing to ensure that the Department’s electronic information, software, websites, documents, and applications are usable to veterans with vision, auditory, physical, and cognitive impairments. It also includes information here about how the veteran community can participate in VA product research feedback sessions to enhance usability and accessibility for all, and here about how veterans or the public can report accessibility issues.
