The NYCDCC Benefit Funds is proud to announce that we have just launched an accessibility widget for our website. The widget, which comes by way of AccessiBe and is located on the bottom right corner of your screen, is meant to assist website visitors in experiencing content in the most optimal way possible based on individual needs. More specifically, the widget helps those who are vision or hearing impaired, have seizure conditions, have cognitive disabilities, or have attention deficit disorders, select from a variety of features that enhance their ability to absorb the content of the website.
Some options offered by the AccessiBe widget include content scaling, adjusting font sizes, changing colors, eliminating animation or flashing lights, allowing for text-to-speech capabilities, highlighting specific areas of text, and much more. Further, not only does the AccessiBe widget enhance user experience, but it also allows the NYCDCC Benefit Funds to adhere to the website guidelines contained within the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”).
