Accessibility
The Citizens' Health Care Working Group is committed to making the information and resources on its Web site accessible to the widest possible audience, including persons with disabilities.
Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. 794d), as amended by the Workforce Investment Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-220) requires that individuals with disabilities, who are members of the public seeking information or services from a Federal agency, have comparable access to and use of information and data as the public without disabilities, unless an undue burden would be imposed on the agency.
Other Accessibility Requirements
As stipulated in the law creating it, technical support and administration for the Working Group was provided by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), an agency of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. For information on the AHRQ Accessibility Policy, see http://www.ahrq.gov/accessibility.htm.
Other Federal regulations and guidelines (e.g., Section 501 and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act) require equal access for individuals with disabilities. The Working Group will make reasonable accommodations to ensure this.
