This episode is a reading of Chapter 1 from Real. Relevant. Required.: A Practitioner's Guide to ADA Title II Digital Accessibility for State and Local Government by Becky Rehorn. The ADA was signed into law in 1990 and required state and local governments to provide equal access to their programs and services. What it did not do, and could not have done, was specify what equal access looked like on a website, in a PDF, or inside a mobile application. That gap between principle and specification lasted thirty-four years. Chapter 1 traces how we got from the statute without a standard to the April 2024 final rule that changed everything. For the next several weeks, Access Brief is sharing chapters from the book. Regular episodes return in July. The book is available now at aogaccess.com.
Access Brief is produced by Accessible Organizations Group LLC.
