The Department of Justice contracted Nava Public Benefit Corporation to continue the work started by 18F to help people, businesses, and public offices know their rights and responsibilities under the ADA. Beta.ada.gov exercises a vital design practice: how do we make ADA rights and regulations easy to find, understand, and share in order to empower diverse groups of Americans? Shaped by the Department’s vision for an accessible website, learn about how we’re translating goals into action, leveraging modern web design through the USWDS, crafting accessible language guidelines from plainlanguage.gov, and practicing inclusive user research.
