WeCO logo

MN Access Alliance is happy to present WeCo, Web Accessibility Specialists and Testers who couple their professional expertise with disability life experience, helping clients create a digital presence that is accessible in ways that software can’t guide or measure.

In this session, Lynn Wehrman, Founder and President of the Minneapolis, mission-based company WeCo Accessibility Services, will walk attendees through a group learning process to help them grasp the “why” and get a handle on the “how” of website accessibility including:

  1. Why website accessibility is vital to nonprofits in delivering services
  2. The true impact of how people with disabilities use your website
  3. How accessibility encompasses more than just blindness
  4. Living examples of what works and what doesn’t
  5. Quick and simple things you can start with now
  6. Free and low-cost resources for nonprofits

Target Audience: Cultural administrators, website developers

  • 3:30-4:30 pm Presentation
  • 4:30-5:00 pm Questions

CART Captioning and light refreshments will be provided.
