Accessibility

We are committed to making the Health and Human Services (HHS) IAMOnline Portal accessible to all users. (Application Portals accessed from within the HHS IAMOnline Portal may not meet accessibility requirements.) We have created our site and portlets using principles of accessibility and usability design and information on the HHS IAMOnline Portal has been formatted to accommodate assistive technology wherever possible. Our standards are compliant with Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA, as noted in http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/ . In addition, we carefully inspect our pages and test them with a variety of software tools.

We welcome comments on how to improve our pages for users with disabilities. If you use assistive technology and the format of any material on this website interferes with your ability to access the information, please use the following points of contact for assistance. To enable us to respond in a manner most helpful to you, please indicate the nature of your accessibility problem, the preferred format in which to receive the material, the web address of the requested material, and your contact information.
