Accessibility
The
National Dropout Prevention Center for Students with Disabilities
(NDPC-SD) is committed to ensuring that our content is accessible
to the widest possible audience. In doing so, we have followed a
set of universal design guidelines to ensure that content found
on our Web site is accessible to a broad range of users.
These guidelines
are based on the emerging work and recommendations of:
Center for Applied
Special Technology (CAST)
CPB/WGBH National Center for Accessible Media
Trace Center
World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)
We run our site through HTML validation programs to check spelling,
assess image load time, ensure alternative text tags are included
throughout, proof HTML design, ensure hyperlinks are accurate and
unbroken, check browser compatibility, and monitor other accessibility
features. We check all new pages we add to the site. As we are able,
we will update our site with new elements which provide even greater
access to information and resources.
A note
about links to other Web sites:
When
selected, links to Web sites outside of the National Dropout Prevention
Center for Students with Disabilities will "pop up" or
appear in a new window. We purposely designed it this way, so that
when following links to external resources, visitors do not lose
the NDPC-SD. To return to the National Dropout Prevention Center
for Students with Disabilities website from another Web site, simply
close that window and you will return to the place you left.
Please
contact us with any questions, comments, concerns, or suggestions
about the accessibility of this Web site.
